Wiring Conventions

All wiring by TravelTrucks is powered from the camper batteries, not from the starter battery. This includes "red" and "orange" wires (see below).

Black is 0 V, Earth.
Red is +12 V, always available.
Orange is +12 V, available with vehicle running.
Yellow co-axial is camera signal.
Grey pairs are speaker cables.
White is usually a spare.

Body Builders' Connectors

Body Builders Connectors and other wires.

The Body Builders' sockets are behind and to the right of the glove box. See page Power & Signals for more details.

The 20-way connector gives access to (amongst other things):

Pin 5: Parking Brake On (Earth=brake engaged; Open circuit=brake released). Output max 500 mA (interface with uncoupling diode)
Pin 6: Battery Positive. Output max 20 A, Fuse F34.
Pin 7: Exterior Light Active. Output max 500 mA. +12 V=side lights on; open circuit=lights off.
Pin 8: Alternator Operation. +12 V=battery charging; Open circuit=battery not charging. Output max 500 mA (interface with uncoupling diode).
Pin10: Reverse Engagement. +12 V=reverse engaged; Open circuit=reverse not engaged. Output max 500 mA (interface with uncoupling diode).
Pin11: Ignition-Operated Positive. Output max 5 A, Fuse F49.
Pin17: Earth. Output max 15 A.

As received, Pin 7 ("EL"), Pin10 ("REV") and Pin11 ("IGN") were in use.

The 12-way connector gives (amongst other things):

Pin 5: Key ON-repeat. An Input (max 500 mA). A positive signal supplied to simulate initial key rotation (key ON position). Only the loads are powered. +12 V=key active; Open circuit=key inactive.
Pin 7: Horn. Output max 150 mA. To drive additional horns via a relay. Earth=horn active; open circuit=horn not active.

As received, Pin 12 had green cable "HN" plugged into it. However this was a mistake. Cable "HN" is the horn signal input to the Cabin HPDPM which powers an optional auxiliary horn. It should have been plugged into Pin 7.
