There's a fused permanent live behind the RH rear lamp cover, on a Purple wire in C1692 (there's also an earth, on a black wire, in C1692) -  Click image to enlarge Wiring for the switch YUG000540LNF is detailed here - http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic552.ht...p;start=15 .

Thanks, Anyone know if there is plug for that will fit C1692 so I don't have to cut the end off?

So .. if there is a plug under the cover for a worklamp, is there an associated plug at the dash end for a switch? Guns and Landrovers .... anything else is irrelevant.

Could you tell me what the fuse is rated at and where it can be found? I am thinking my preferred method would be to fit a 12v cigar lighter socket. Then have a work light with a trailing lead and plug etc. This has obvious advantages of allowing other equipment to be plugged in. Although most probably the kids game chargers

Was all set to wire my work light to a relay behind the speaker but now I also want to put a 12v recepticle in the speaker housing.
Do I need a second relay? Should I get a fuse box? Ideas? Thanks |

No there isn't, the plug at the rear is meant for an accessory socket.
The Purple wire goes back to Fuse 2 (20A) under the driver's seat, it also supplies the towing socket pickup connector.
The Purple wire is fused at 20A, the wire from the fuse box to the towing socket pickup connector is 3.0mm2, the spur to C1692 is 2.5mm2 . Paul. 1989 Arles Blue 2.5TD 110 Hardtop 1999 Epsom Green Discovery II 4.0 V8i 'XS' |

When I fitted rear worklights to my DC, I already had a socket fitted to the aux connector in the back (which is also connected to the connector for the trailer socket, by the way).
The DC of course doesn't have a rear door, but despite this the harness to the back still has the wiring for the heated rear window and rear wash/wipe. For ease of wiring, I used the HRW connector for the worklight. The vehicle had all the wiring for the HRW except the switch (even the relay was already there!), so fit the switch and connect the worklight to the connector at the rear and hey presto! instant solution. Apart from the fact that the symbol on the switch is a HRW symbol, everything you need is there - it is fused, relay controlled, the switch is illuminated when the lights are on, and there are warning lights on both the switch and the instrument panel. No additional wiring required! The HRW switch is, of course, only powered with the ignition on, which is ideal if the workilghts are traditional bulb type. Mine are LED lights (very low current) so I have spliced the live to the HRW switch into the permanent live to the hazard switch. Worklights now work with or without the engine running. I appreciate that this is no help if you have a vehicle with a rear door, though. |

Sorry, I should have made that a bit clearer 
What I meant by my reply was that the wire gauge and fuse are large enough to support an accessory socket (10A max) and a worklight (typically - 55w, which is just under 5A) without using a relay or an additional fusebox. .
