2013 Defender 130 Puma 2.2 SW Rimini Red

Located my PC in a sealed but vented box above the wheel arch along with Inverter, CD DVD and 110v Transformer.

Here is a pic of the location of the equipment, do you know this is the only photo I have of the right hand side of the vehicle. Did I tell you we have been to Morocco

Slimer the only issue is, is when the power to the screen is interrupted ie engine off to re fuel. The screen turns back on but there is no signal from the PC so we re boot the PC and all is fine till the next stop. I'm sure this is a simple setting issue I have not found yet.

Ken as if

its Kristiana's

I'll look into it, if it's not a setting somewhere that can be changed the answer may be to power it from the same PSU as the DVD drive so it powers up/down according to the switch setting along with the PC
