Hi guys,

I’ve played CDDA for a couple of weeks now and have finally got to a point where I feel comfortable and have settled down and started creating a static base.

I made a new rig with a couple of solar panels, an electric motor, vehicle controls and some storage batteries. However when I install the minifridge and then try to turn it on… there is no option to?

I have tried installing an alternator but presume this is not needed as I have no option to?

Thanks for the help in advance.

Electronics of this type are controlled from a dashboard or electronics control unit.

I have tried a electronics control unit and that didn’t work either. I will try a dashboard though!
