Making 12v socket perm live in MY16?

I know this is a blast from the past but will this work for a MY16 to make the rear perm live? Or front if it's easier. http://www.disco3.co.uk/forum/topic60079-15.html

It's to connect a trickle charger to when the car is left for a few weeks. Was wondering if the BMS would have a hissyfit or the car would never go to sleep?

TIA.

Can't help with the wiring question as I have not done it, but if you charge via a perm live socket eg boot then the BMS will be happy.

They're not having towing leckie fitted as they're not carrying bikes any more. Thumbs Up

Not sure I've given you good info as I didn't NB you were talking about MY 16. Mine is MY 12 and has a boot outlet that is live.

I don't see why it shouldn't work. Mine is 13my and I have modded the relays to give permanent live cigar, and accessory sockets.

Thumbs Up Thumbs Up Will knock up a short bit of cable with a couple of spades on it and have a look on Friday. Worst case senario is they have to swap it back if it causes a problem. The relay is downstream of the fuse so any issues would just trip the fuse. Thumbs Up
