Subject: Westy reefer relay wiring -- the Red wire?
In the battery box under the driver's seat lives a relay -- shown on
97.32b, labeled "REFRIGERATOR 12-VOLT HEATER RELAY".
There's a bundle of three wires in a single jacket attached to the
relay, shown on the diagram:
TO BATTERY + : Red, 2.5mm
TO ALTERNATOR TERMINAL D+ : Blue, 0.5mm
TO IGNITION STARTER SWITCH TERMINAL 50 : Red/Black, 0.5mm
On my Westy, this bundle goes forward under the driver's seat swivel
base then downward through a grommet, near as I can tell by reaching
under that base.
My question: where does the "TO BATTERY" wire go? THE FUSE BOX!
There are two wires on the engine battery + terminal: the chubby starter
cable, and a red wire which feeds the fuse panel, etc., in the dash. The
"TO BATTERY" wire connects someplace, but where?
