- Viano/2008/4matic 2.2cc
Hello to all.
We are currently converting our Mercedes-Benz Viano 4matic 2008-model into a mini campervan. We have bought a VCC (dc-to-dc) battery charger, to be able to charge the service (second) LifePo4 battery we have installed from the car alternator (from the main car battery in practice). However, the dc-to-dc charger (Votronic VCC 1212-20C) requires a D+ connection or at least KL.15 signal to be able to function properly. 2 questions:
(a) Does our Viano have a smart alternator (we can probably test)?
(b) Where can we find the D+ or KL.15 signal (if there is no D+)?
Thanks a lot! I really hope to have an answer.
Best,
stepadou
