Tow electrics ignition trigger

Finally got round to finishing wiring in the 13 pin electrics.

Is there an ignition trigger in the driver seat fuse box instead of running up to the dash, which means loads of carpet and soundproofing removal!

Thanks Mike

Yes absolutely on a 2.2

I've done just this to save faffing with the dash. I'll dig the colours out for you later.

Martin - Is there just for the 2.2? What about the 2.4?
I thought the 2.4 didn't if I remember rightly. Diesels Lives Matter. ⛽️🛢️👨‍🔧🧰⚙️

No ignition sources in the under-seat fuse box on 2.4 as far as I know. The 2.2 does have some.

Thanks Martin, brilliant if you could, I looked at wiring it to the dash, just moving the carpet stopped me! Mike

These are the ignition sources in the seat box fuse box on a 2.2 Puma:

Mine's on the speedo transducer line (Fuse 11).

I suppose you could use a fuse-tap too

Are there any first position on the Ignition switch feeds from the under seat fuse box, I would like to find one if possible. NormanD WE191

No, only in the dash fuse box.

Fuse 26 - lighter socket
Fuse 27 - Radio
Fuse 28 - heater fan
