Go westy hook up box connection issues!

Post by ElevenSpots »

Hi - help needed, pulling hair out.

Fixing up a westfalia t25 van -added new panels and cut holes for matching go westy electric, water and solar hook up boxes. Then realised the plug for the elec hook up is 3 pin USA plug (circle top, two small spins left & right bottom)

Anyone know a workaround so I can connect to 230 v uk camp sites with my old cable (obviously need a converter plug so the uk 3 circle waterproof hookup plug fits into the 3 pin USA plug?

Gutting to think I can’t find a solution - yet!

Any help would be amazing. Thankyou.

I’ve screwed the fitting out - at first I thought I could get a new fitting to drop in….how stupid of me!

Thankyou for your reply -but I’m struggling. I can purchase a converter from uk to Europe plug / but can’t find a converter for uk.

I’m thinking getting a waterproof USA plug - but can’t even find USA hook up cables!

Please can you ask your mate where he got his from? Thankyou. R
