VW Electrics Headlight warning buzzer

2008-09-23T16:07:26Z

Willoughby:

'''Disco Dave'''

piece of the proverbial! get your self a buzzer from Maplin! you can even get one that plays music! attach the +ve wire to the dash lights. easiest place to do this is being the cig lighter where the light is on that or the light behind the heater controls!

connect the -ve to the door contact on the drivers door. if you take the door switch out there is a terminal on the back! you need to connect to this.

this way the buzzer will sound when the lights are on and door is open! however this will not sound if you leave the parking lights on!

'''Mk II'''

If you use the +ve from the lights to +ve to the buzzer and

you use the +ve from the ignition to -ve to the buzzer then

when you leave lights on and turn off ign the +ve of the ignition turns to -ve and the buzzer sounds switch lights off and all is quiet.

problem with wireing to the door switch is if you pull over and dive in the back for a kip or exit side door then you dont get the buzz.

We bought 5 hi-vis jacket for £1 each at the pound shop Wink I've carried 2 warning triangles for years (in case you forget to pick one up after an incident Wink ). Always carried a first aid kit and have a mixed box of bulbs under the seat. I also recommend carrying an empty gallon petrol can

Summing up

First aid kit (as comprehensive as you can have)
Vis jacket for each person in vehicle
2 X warning triangles (cheap enough)
Plenty of spare bulbs (and fuses)
An empty fuel can

'''Louey''' Make sure you have all your vehicle documents with you and a insurance Green Card - and of course how to contact you insurance AND breakdown service.

Have an up to date map that give a decent amount of detail

For diesels: carry a spare fuel filter and alternator belt and a 40amp fuse for the glow plugs and some spare fuel pipe for the injector overflow

Hi Viz Vest
 
Visibility Vests are compulsory.'' ''Must be worn by all outside the
car at anytime, day or night, outside the vehicle at the side of any highway
not in an urban (street lights?) area. The jackets must be kept inside
the car so they can be put on before getting out and also must be visible
from outside the car''.'' 
 Warning triangle
 
Warning triangle is compulsory.
 Only one is required for non-Spanish registered vehicles.
 Two are required for Spanish vehicles, but to avoid difficulties
with the police it's recommend two triangles should be carried.
 
 Glasses
 If you wear corrective glasses for driving, a spare pair is compulsory. 
 

Others
 

The use of a mobile telephone, other than a true hands-free, whilst
driving is now banned. 

 The law operating in Spain regarding the use of indicators on motorways
is being strictly enforced. You risk being fined for not indicating before
overtaking and again before pulling back to the nearside lane after overtaking.
Also, ensure you do not cross the solid white line as you enter the motorway
from a slip road, but wait until the line is broken.

We bought 5 hi-vis jacket for £1 each at the pound shop Wink I've carried 2 warning triangles for years (in case you forget to pick one up after an incident Wink ). Always carried a first aid kit and have a mixed box of bulbs under the seat. I also recommend carrying an empty gallon petrol can
Gasure sell a touring kit for the most used European LPG fillers. although you can usually borrow one at the service station[/b]

Summing up

First aid kit (as comprehensive as you can have)
Vis jacket for each person in vehicle
2 X warning triangles (cheap enough)
Plenty of spare bulbs (and fuses)
An empty fuel can

'''Louey''' Make sure you have all your vehicle documents with you and a insurance Green Card - and of course how to contact you insurance AND breakdown service.

Have an up to date map that give a decent amount of detail

For diesels: carry a spare fuel filter and alternator belt and a 40amp fuse for the glow plugs and some spare fuel pipe for the injector overflow

Please stick to the following [[naming convention|naming convention]]. Feel free to add information to this page and to the pages you create but please don't alter the section headings as this will have a knock on effect on the naming scheme. It will help subsequent people to add information and will avoid accidental page overwriting. Please PM hacksawbob on the club 80-90 forums if you have any questions or suggestions.
I appreciate that there will be some overlap between sections, and equally a topic that could appear in several sections, enter your information in the section that you think is most appropriate, it can then be linked to from other pages.

*Red links are pages that do not yet have information added to them (or whose pages have become orphaned, due to typos in the internal links)

*Please - Add your name at the beginning of the section you are adding! A good way is to format it as below, including a brief summary - adding a single space at the beginning turns it into a caption (repetitive saves seem to destroy that though)

e.g. SPACE '''Name: ''' Brief summary of what has been added below (and possibly why its important)

'''CF8'''

(not tested retreived from another site)

Pinout for the back
Check the back of the Zig unit. If it's a CF8, then the wires running into the back are quite simple.

From the left hand side, you should find a connector block numbered from 1, through to 11.

1 and 2 are fed from the split charge relay from the engine charging circuit.

3 and 4 go to the liesure battery

On the Zig unit, ALL ODD NUMBERS are NEGATIVE, ALL EVEN NUMBERS are POSITIVE DO NOT MIX THEM UP.

Terminals 5 and 6 are normally used for the water pump

7 and 8 for another peice of kit, such as an extractor fan,

9 and 10 is the interior lighting circuit.

Broadband recommended for the following link
