Hi All

Hope the weekend is just great, We have just purchased our A'Van (2000 sportliner) unfortunitly it did not have any manuals or instructions and the previous owner could not help.
I have some sort of electic connection at the front. it is round, with a cap.at floor level. Possabilities are brakes or direct hot wire for charging battery
any ideas???

The people are up here now, they bought theirs 2nd hand too and didn't know it was there, this one has no wires attached, looks like an Anserson plug , have you traced the wires back to see where they go.???

Hi Doug
Thanks for looking into it
Have traced wires but meet in a cluster with other wires????
Good news though ..heard from previous owner today and she has found some paper work that might solve the problem????

who knows. am having a brake controler fitted Tues, so they might be able to hellp , I was thinking today, that it might be the inlet for a solar panel???

regards Bri

thanks Doug
yes I got the paper work today...no mention.

So when I se the 12 volt guy tomorrow I will mention it.
Failing that I have thought today I can put a test light to it that way, at least I will know if it is an outlet or inlet....
Good thinking (I thought)
anyhow thanks again

Hey that's good thinking, a test light, dead easy mate, if you get no light that means it's an inlet, if you do get a light....... then it's an outlet .
