Make the 12v live permanently?

[Swe223]

Any idea how I could do this? Found a thread on the MK3, and my old Ibiza was always on. Can't find it on google after lots of searching!!!!!! Surely a setting on the computer or a fuse without the need of a kit!

Depends on what you are trying do, can you use a different fuse that is permanently live?

I'm not sure where I'd begin tbh haha, I think maybe leave it or get someone to fit a kit to make it live as I don't wanna mess with fuses. On the mk3 thread it sounded easy but seeing how different the diagram is, I'm not sure what should move/replace. I've found the one for the 12v and removing it makes it so it doesn't work at all, unsure how I would make that to then go perminantly live.

Interesting, my 2006 Leon has a permanent live from the factory (I bought it new)?

Could you take an image of your dush fuse box?

I thought it would of been an option in the on board computer incase you needed a phone charge when broken down for example but nothing there!

Legend, will check mine to see what's the difference later if any and test a few bits out. Thanks or that pal!

Please report your findings.

I will do, its definatly a much needed feature in every car! I'll have a little play with it tomorrow!

No differences at all except ones referencing Engine D2L - 4 speed TFSI. Really frustrating haha

Did you find a solution?

What are you trying to find? A permanent live feed? If so on the back of the light switch there’s a red wire. If for some reason you can’t get to it unscrew the fuse box and use your multimeter to find a live from the back of there, should be plenty of options
