TJ101 Posted April 3, 2008 Author Share Posted April 3, 2008 mmm, "Accessories fused direct from battery !!" Thanks Tony,, No power from it,, either with the ign/engine on or not,, but would be handy, a deeper look i recon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could it be that it is part of the stereo system, Audio left and right? As it could be there so you can connect another speaker to that, and then through into the doors? Just a thought. Try getting an old speaker and just jimmy the wire's into it. If there is no power coming from it then that might be it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orange Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 mmm, "Accessories fused direct from battery !!" If that's the case and there isn't anything plugged in it, it might not have a fuse in... so you won't get any power to it. I'm a numpty at electrics, though, so you can probably ignore me!! Check the fuse box for empty slots, though!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThreePointFive Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Is an XS top spec? Maybe it's for an accessory (parking sensors don't come on Defenders, do they?) that isn't wired in or made 'live'. Maybe I should just be quiet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJ101 Posted April 7, 2008 Author Share Posted April 7, 2008 Sorted, now i have found 10 mins !! It is indeed a "Accessories fused direct from battery" feed from position 2 (Accessory socket) in the under seat fuse box, with a joint connector fixed to the brake servo bracket under the bonnet, somehow, this connector was not making contact, !!! Thanks all for the input ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest WALFY Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Tim As I haven't stripped mine down to have a look. What size fuse is it and what size cable. I need somewhere to connect up my PC and screen for my trip in a few weeks. Do you think it'll be man enough for the job? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need somewhere to connect up my PC and screen for my trip in a few weeks. Do you think it'll be man enough for the job? Mark, The line is protected by a 20 amp fuse, under the r/h seat, in the main box, If it was me, i would use this feed for a cooler box or the like, in the rear as that's were it terminates, and fit a new fused supply for the PC, direct from the battery box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GBMUD Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 That is handy Tim, I wonder if they fitted them to Td5s... Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Yep,, useful As i have just put in a power lead from the front, down the left hand side, then over to the right hand side, to find Landrover had beaten me to it !! d'oh !! Am guessing, but recon late TD5's would be the same ThreePointFive Is an XS top spec? Yep, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSN Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 There is a 2nd accessory socket also off this line according to 07MY wiring spec. I think if read it correct, the 1 in rear is 3mm2 cable, the other socket is 2.5mm2. Unfortunately I don't have the veh overview sheet so can't see actual locations. I know it is 865mm from the split from the main harness though! As Tim has already sussed, it is 20A fuse. 90 and 110 models should both have these accesory sockets. 130 doesn't. Have been meaning to look at this for ages but not had the time. Anyway at least it was found. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveBo Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 And I've just run an accessory socket feed to the back of my 05 TD5 110 as well. Ho hum, always room for another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
