What did you do with your Range Rover today

[Enthusiastman]

Go on, take it out for a blast and see if runs better! Should wake up next door's cat.

I am tempted albeit i dont wish to cause any further damage so i shall refrane from doing so until its all here and fitted back on. I have also tonight bought a Turbo solenoid Boost valve as another process of illimination of those small items which i can change myself. It was only £32 with a 5 year warranty so worth a punt in my quest to solve my rough running issue.

@kermit_rr if you only have one end of the connector then chop it off and solder it properly. Not like your going to take it back on warranty or use it for something else

 

[kermit_rr]

I've no clue what the plug type is to buy the other half, I can take a pic...

This is the badger

Be useful to know what the other 2 wires are for...

Chop chop chop like an EAS

Looks like a PWM connector for a PC motherboard.

Where's that?

I've got something similar under my steering column with nothing for it to plug in to apparently.

It's in the left access panel, next the the sub, in the boot
It's too big for a standard pc pwm

Is that the one from the boot for tow bar auxiliary If it is I just cut it off to attach my solar panel. Think the other half came with the Land Rover auxiliary socket wiring you purchased from them

Yes that's it i think. There's +12v ground do you know what the other 2 are?
Sounds like i need to improvise

Satnav?

 

[Tenebreaux]

I'd be tempted to cut it off and install some other generic type connector so you could just unplug the panel at will.

Satnav?

Kermit sez it's too big for a standard PWM. I have no idea what the wiring on a tow bar socket does, I've never messed with one.

Unless you want to fit auxiliary socket forget them (look in Rave for what they did, I've forgotten off hand) You only need the live (was for fridge in caravan when stopped for short time) and the ground

When I towed caravans you had 2 sockets. Main one was for lights, indicators, brakes. This plugs into socket on the right hand side of boot. You had a second socket to power fridge and other auxiliaries inside caravan, This is the one on the left hand side of boot. Now a days caravans have all the pins in one socket and modern cars are wired accordingly

Sounds like one could be a switched live and the other a reversing light

Sounds about right. Long time since I have had a caravan to tow and don't fancy it these days

Might be a previous owner bodge up...

Don't think so, it's the same on the other side for the standard trailer lights
