new to owning a largo

Post by goonernutter »

Hi all,
Names Terry,
Just purchased my first largo bit of a gamble but looked like it would be suitable for what I needed. Im in to kite surfing so basically wanted something to carry my kit and be able to change with relative ease and privacy, And was not willing to pay over inflated prices for a vw.
I dare say I will be calling on my fellow largo owners for advice and guidance as I have not got the first idea what to expect from these vans.
First impressions seem good from what comes standard with these vans, As for reliability and performance im hoping maybe you lot out there could fill me in.
There is couple of questions I would appreciate some advice on, cigarette lighter in front and 12v adapter at back not working, im assuming and hoping its a fuse but fuse holder is in Japanese does anyone know what number fuse this would be, Also does anyone know where I can get or download a manual for the van in English,
Also have the remote control for the aircon in back but that's in Japanese too which is to be expected as its an import.
I also have a contraption stuck to the dash which I assume a previous owner has added its like a display box that says car voltage and temperature apart from the obvious would anyone know why this would be fitted it plugs into cigarette lighter so at moment not working.
Look forward to any responses and chatting with you all.
cheers Terry

Hi and welcome to the forums.

Like Jimbob said the 12v sockets only come on with the ignition. But if you needed to have them permanent this wouldn't be to hard to run a separate live to the rear.

Here is the fusebox layout in English ;)
