The fuel level sensor on the fuel tank has the normal two pin connector but there are two wires adjacent, blue/green and pink/black apparently going nowhwere, any ideas what these are for ? Perhaps a redundancy from the Range Rover loom.

I would like to operate a peltier effect miniature fridge in the boot to keep drinks cool and if I can use these it will save me running a cable from the dash.

Perhaps redundant from the Chim loom low level warning light on the fuel gauge... perhaps, (this is a chim with low level wiring, as I can see four wires, BUT THEN, as I know green/black, which is the right wire (that I can just see the tracer) and black eyelet screwed to the sender body, work the sender. The other wires might still have tracers through them too.

I thought it was only the engine loom that was Range Rover, rest of the car is bespoke, made by TVR?

I have no idea what those wires are for but strongly suspect they would not be suitable for powering a fridge!

Thanks Adrian I am sure that you are correct.
Philpot the peltier effect mini fridge takes very little current but I will check the rating though.

Great Forum this!

Philpot The Blaupunct mini fride only takes 35Watts ( 3 amps) so the spare wires should be fine. I find the fridge ideal for keeping a few drinks cool.
