Volks,

I am reassembling my 1986 Syncro Westfalia that was originally a European
market vehicle.  Under the rear seat on top of the vent where the furnace
is, is a transformer and some circuitry that is few by the 230VAC system.
Anyone know what this transformer does?  Looks like it makes 12VDC as there
is a heavier R and BR set of wires going to it.  If it does make 12V then
what for?  To charge the camping battery and run lights?  What happens if I
feed it 115VAC?  I have a 2:1 transformer here that I am debating to install
so that the voltage to this transformer and to the fridge will be 230VAC and
replace the European plug with a North American plug and have that be at
115VAC.  The big question is will 60Hz be an issue?

Cheers!
