4.12 Interior Lighting
4.12.1 Additional Internal Lamps
Additional cabin interior lighting may be obtained
by directly accessing the connector inside the
dome lamp in the cab.
Additional load space interior lighting may be
obtained by directly accessing the connector
inside the load space lamps in the load space
area.
CAUTION: The maximum total
internal lamp load must not exceed
5A (75W)
Power for the Interior Lights - cabin and
cargo areas – comes from the battery save
system (Central Junction Box pin C2-31), and for
vehicles with power locking,* the circuit for each
area is controlled by a separate pin on the Central
Junction Box:
•
Front (cabin) lights, pin C2-22
•
Rear (cargo) lights, pin C2-27 wire not present
on chassis cab and cab-van-floor vehicles
* with manual locking vehicles, control of interior
lighting is done directly through the door contact
switches. All vehicles, however, utilise the battery
saver relay to provide power for internal lighting
for a limited time.
Each of these pins on the Central Junction Box
can take a load of 75W. Lights that are controlled
by the battery save circuit will extinguish 30 to
180 minutes after ignition off (dependent on
vehicle configuration).
4.12.2 Additional 'Theatre
Lighting' for rear of vehicle
interior
For chassis cab or cab-van floor (and camper)
vehicles, rear lighting is not utilised and so there
is no wire to pin C2-27. However, converters can
add their own lights (up to the max. load) via the
battery save or a separate switchable feed, by
adding a pre-crimped wire and terminal to
connector C2. This is located on the Central
Junction Box behind the glove box on the
passenger side (please refer to Figures E84705
and E84712).
Refer to: 4.14 Special Conversions (page 131).
(Adding connectors, Terminals and Wiring)
Where higher wattage installations are required,
these should be taken through the Auxiliary Fuse
Box with a suitable switch and / or relay as
required.
Refer to: 4.13 Fuses and Relays (page 119).
