Thread: Accessories and lights experience

G'day Walruslike,

That light in the rear cargo area will go out after 10min or so. When the wife and I go to the drive-in I usually pop the light out and unplug it. Cause if I open the door to grab a smoke the light comes back on for 10min. Which is annoying for the wife in laying in the back.

Also the power socket a the rear of the middle console between the front seats has constant power. Try pugging your pump into that one next time you need to run your compressor.

Thanks Fisher that's good info and tip. Much obliged.

On the D4 if you hold in the interior light switch in the roof console for 5 seconds it will turn off the interior lights auto activation.
And then it can be reactivated by holding it in again for 5 seconds.
Not sure if the FL2 is the same but quite a lot of features are similar so could be worth trying.

I always leave the vehicle running while using the air compressor.
This keeps the voltage higher and the compressor runs better.

Cheers,
