....Note though that your caravan fridge won’t have power when attached to the car....

@Chris skiz - is there power to the ATC do you know? Read somewhere that it wasn't wired to the towbar electrics?

Yes the ATC is powered. Though opc Leeds had never fitted one before and initially were pretty clueless. I confess I kicked up a bit of a fuss as they couldn’t answer any questions I had about what it would and wouldn’t power. Ended up complaining to Porsche GB about their lackadaisical attitude and then eventually they took an interest and got the answers. It is a good bit of kit and at least I’ve no worries over warranty issues as I’ll be extending again in January.

Thanks Chris
I can never quite get my head round why some pins are wired and others not. If you have a 13 pin outbound socket why wouldn't you wire them all in

I couldn’t agree more. I think it’s pin 9 for the fridge and the return earth is 13 but I can manage without the fridge as long as I’ve milk for a brew when I get where I’m going, she who must be obeyed goes shopping while I get the awning up and everything connected….saves the usual awning induced arguments!
As I understand though it’s quite common now for oe towbars to not power a fridge. Daft or what.

So car was collected tonight and my god it's lovely. Got a nice surprise to see the towbar thats been fitted is electric. They were telling me it took 3 techs 8 hours to fit as they had a bit of a nightmare with it. Also trying to have it ready for my collection today. All free of charge
