hi there,

I bought from private a compass shadow 1987 around Easter time, picked it up in Keighley - can't find the seller's email now - if you are reading this or anybody who is in the know:

I used til now on site without hookup points, but now I want to hook up and cannot find the connecting point on the van - there is one little white panel on the side opp door which hides some water pipe I think but I can't find the socket...?

any ideas?

I am sure it is meant to connect and am pretty sure the seller said the fridge would (only) work on mains, so there must be a way...?

thanks very much

Barbara

There isn't anything underneath is there? Our Esterel has the transformer and the hook up connector under the van. Only an idea though!

I had a 1992 Shadow and as far as I remember the inlet for the EHU was behind a little door/flap. Maybe on an older model it was retro-fitted by a previous owner and as Andi says it could be underneath the van; another place to look would be in the front locker. Whereabouts in the van is the consumer unit? Maybe you could trace it back from that to get an idea of where it goes outside.

If you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel, just keep going till you go round the bend.

Mine was under the van at the front, below the front nearside window
