Thread: TD5 Electrical Question

It was available as an option but not a standard fitment. I didnt get it fitted up to big red as it was a live feed with no battery management system. I got the dual battery setup which got me a 30A feed to the back end.

Is there anywhere I can take power for a fridge in the rear of this truck without running leads to the battery, I dont have a duel battery setup in this vehcle.

No you have to run wire from the battery to the rear, Dual core is best ect earth and positive

There's a standard live feed down the (from memory) right hand side of a Defender. It's not 50A though and I'll have to ask the obvious question: WHat kind of fridge do you use that needs a 50A connection?

The easiest thing is to run a twin core cable in conduit down the left chassis rail from the battery box and up into the indicator tail light area at the rear.

I use a power winch to pull the dingy onto the trailer (wife insisted when I bought it) so this would suit that well if it was. No drama's if its not.
