Converting 24v sankey to 12v
Jason2985:
:D
How do i convert a 24volt sankey to 12volt?
Is it just a case of changing the plug and bulbs or is a full rewire required?

Plugs are the same, just change the bulbs, it is that easy. Also I would advise to change any where that has 24v written on the thing to advoid any future accidents.......
stageonesimmo:
By changing the plug do you mean from the NATO one to a standard civvy type? If so, why not just make a bridge lead from a nato plug and civvy socket that fits between the 2 - easy enough to do and keeps the trailer original......
SAS is right about the bulbs though and changing any stencils to 12V - Oh how we laughed in the old days before it went all 24V when folk blew all their bulbs......

Yeh sorry the plug that goes in the back of the towing vehicle.
How would i make a bridge lead? whats involved? How do i wire that up then?
The sankey still has the infa red light underneath, :lol:
It says "Bradley" near the towing eye not "Sankey".
Any differance? please excuse my ignorance. but i never served in Her Majesty`s Armed Forces.
