    Disco 5 van wiring

    Looking at a new disco 5 just wondering and as the battery is in the back drivers side panel. The salesman was not very informative and could not answer my reasonable questions.
    So the questions are;

    Where do you take a feed off for an anderson plug to power the van?
    Where do you find a feed that triggers the fridge to power up when car is running?
    There appears to no room for an aux battery, what have others done?
    He could not offer any advice on where to obtain this info.
    Maybe I am being a bit harsh but I need to know.

    Paul Muscat over on the D5 Australian Owners Group on Facebook is the guru of D5 installations.

    Have a look at photos of his installs.

    PS My Anderson plug feed is directly from the starter battery via a suitable fuse. I took the feed to my auxiliary battery the same way, via a DC-DC charger. I have a 5 seater so I have heaps of space under the floor for the aux battery, DC-DC, twin compressor and air tank.

    Where did you put the Aux battery?

    I have been declined, apparently they won't admit me because of no photo. I don't like photo's on social media and I am in three other groups without a photo.
