Subject:Calling Aux Battery / Wiring Experts...82 Air cooled Westfalia
From:Burdett, Jean-Pierre

Hi gang I need help  (again) ,

 

 My water and battery LED cluster does not function, not does the water
pump. Fridge works.  I have an 82 Air-cooled so mine does not have a
fuse box beside the pillar it's under the seat. 

 

I got under the seat into the battery compartment and now I'm really
confused. It looks like  I have the Aux battery kit installed from the
factory, but I'm not sure having never worked on a Westy before.  See my
pics below and let me know if you can help me.  

  

LEDs are nice to haves but critical.  If I do have an  Aux battery kit
then it would be great to have that working properly. At the very least
I want to get the water pump functioning .  

 

So...anyone who can share their experience / ideas here I would be very
grateful!

 

 Photos of the wiring - the problem is the wires are all loose so even
if I put a battery in there I don't know where the rest of the wires
connect to  or if they are already connected OK .  I wish I new what the
inline fuse looked like!

I think this is a Bosch Relay right? But are there are wires missing?
Or does it look right to you?
