Skyside Tracker
Anyone heard of Skyside trackers?
Having electrical issues on D4 and have found this unit which is on a permanent live and is backfeeding to the electrical circuits.
Never heard of skyside and a quick search can not see anything about skyside.

That is exactly where it is going.
We have been having electrical issues with warning sign saying Start engine battery low.
We asked the respected LR indie garage where we bought the D4 from if a tracker was fitted and got told no.
It is coming out, have never heard of skyside tracker and can not quickly find a website for it. My conclusion a cheapo ebay special wired into permanent live are giving rise to the issues we are having.

This may be a silly question.. but are you sure the brand is Skyside?
I thought i'd do a quick search.. it appears some trackers have idiot guides to fitting..

The D4 is currently at the garage trying to resolve electrical issues so I have not actually seen the tracker.
I was told that the trade name was skyside so it might well be a case of .
Since we were informed that no tracker was fitted and it appears to be the cause of at least some of the issues it is coming out. When we get the D4 back I will see if we can get more information and post it up.
