cables for a waeco fridge

should have mentioned that it's a waeco CF50

Steve,
Try the place where you bought it from, or Waceo themselves if not ,any good 4WD shop (ARB etc) should have the cables available, just cut to length and fit your own plugs.

Where are you trying to plug the fridge into, it sounds you wanna plug it into your cig, lighter in the front,

I for one dont like those cig plugs, I bought myself a male and female low voltage 12 volt plugs, cut of the cig lighter and wired up the male plug, then wired in the female plug to the rear of my 4b, using 3ml cabling with a direct line to my second battery, and of cause with a circuit breaker as close to the batery as possible,

I also bought a female plug for my mobitronic power supply for 240 volts, thus elimenating the cig lighter completly .

You dont really want to have extentions, the more plugs the more drop in amps.

Yeah see your friendly Waeco stealer or if it was me I'd get some cable from the shed, if the plugs are moulded I'd chop the cable and solder in an extension, make sure of a good job as Waceos appear to be particularly voltage sensitive.

think laterally people.

get an extension cord made for the cig plug. one end male nad one end female.

any auto sparky can do that and cost next to nothiing.

easy solve.

ideally would be to fit a hella 2 pin plug that's spring loaded. the waeco plug is compatible with it. just take the red attachment off.

I have done this in my patrol. I simply went to the 12 volt shop and got a female plug to suit the waeco and made a 4 foot extension using 6mm doulble, sheathed wire, which goes into the 2 pin low voltage plug in the back of the car. Now when we sleep in the back of the car, I can put da waeco on the front passenger seat ( a bit squeesy) or any where in the car when travelling. If you cut the plug off your waeco, not only does it void your warranty, but you can't use the 240v adaptor when ur at home.

Any auto sparky could do this for a couple of bucks (you supply the parts).
If they want to charge you a heap, anyone with a soldering iron will be able to help.

Cheers,

Was at super cheap yesterday and bought a male to female 12 volt extension cord for $6.50 it's 3 meters long. Then cut off the male end and put on a new plug. The plug cost $2.50 and looks just like a waeco one. Even has the red dohickey thingo that sits on the end to go into the normal power sockets.
9 bucks and the jobs was done.

Hope this helps.
