New fridge for Westfalia

Post by uncle monty »

Hi everyone

Just wondering if anyone has tried to wire a smad absorption fridge 3 way

I have a positive and negative on the fridge but a number of wires from the old RM184 Electrolux

At the wire connector block two reds go to a black two browns to a blue and a blue to a light colour wire

I do have a cigarette lighter connection which came with the fridge

Any advice greatly appreciated

This is the wiring diagram for the Westfalia’s camping equipment. It’s a little bit difficult to trace the paths from it but they’re all there.

Thanks for that!

Bentley guide wasn’t very clear

The German one doesn’t match

If there’s anyone out there who has actually changed one over I would be grateful for advice
