Habitation relay

[DeliDave_]

Could anyone tell me where this relay is sited on a Bailey Indian S6 van and which pin on the towing vehicle works it.I lost all my van roadlights and and I am thinking the relay has either failed or is not being activated.
Many thanks

The habitation relay plays no part in the running lights of the van, they are basically straight through connections via a fuse block normally under the bed at the front.

The habitation relay only affects the van internal electrics operation, isolating everything except the fridge and battery charging circuits

I had the same problem three years ago. The earth pin was corroded. Can't tell you the pin number this time of night. Cleaning them all on plug and socket with electrical contact spray did the trick.

its pin 3 for the road lights on all plugs, earth is always pin3.
1. 12n pin 3
2. 12s pin3 (pre1996)
3. 12s pin3 & pin7 (post1996)
4. 13 pin pin3 for road lights, + pin11 for fridge +pin13 for charge circuit.
BTW the earth wire is white.
