Vito van 12v ignition switched live pick up

[Kingofthetwisties]

Can anyone advise where I can pick up a switched live feed from on my 2011 Vito. I’ve tried all the fuses in the fuse box in the engine bay and all seem to have constant power.

Thanks in advance

front ciggy lighter is the usual

Yes, i though that but it is not switched though, its permanantly live

I've had a 2006 and 2007 Vito, 2009 and 2014 Viano's.
All 639's, all with switched front ciggy lighter.

Other power points tend to be permanently fed, when the 639 has them.

Yes my 2012 Viano cigar socket is switched too. Wonder if someone has fed it a permanent live to suit their use... and perhaps the switched feed is still there behind the console

Suppose its possibel, ill have to have a look. Would rather it be switched as If i leave somthing plugged in it stays live when the van is off and cold drain the batt.

You could try pulling fuse 18 to see if it is still fed from it.

Tried that, make no difference, someone looks to have wred it into a fixed power source. Sorted now, took a feed from fuse 18 to where i needed it

Are you sure with the cig lighter, some items become live once you have opened the door for example or stay live for a few mins after removing the key,
