Another of the new 'Basic Skills' family of short videos, this one covers how to wire up a 12v accessory plug. These are becoming more & more popular given the increasing number of accessories we are 'plugging into' our cars these days.

Items like fridges, heated cups, fans, heaters, laptops & CB radios to list but a few.

This video covers which kind of accessory plugs are best to buy, how to wire them up and what to watch out for too...

Its an easy task but one that is often done poorly resulting in short circuits and ultimately blowing the fuse on the car's circuit.

Getting the wires the wrong way round can also cause serious damage to electronic components too...

These 'Basic Skills' videos are NOT meant to be a decisive, all encompassing, training video on teaching you all the various aspects of professional skills, no, not in the slightest!

Its a short video showing the basics giving you a starting point on how its done, the tools you need and a few tips along the way...

Any questions then please leave them in the comments section below and I'll do my best to get back to you asap...
