Added a second TV cable from the booster to the TV. When the satellite was installed Simon used the original cable which meant a redundant aerial.

Some trim needed removed but I got there. Got there 3 hours later that is. LOL

Ally are sure you have nothing to tell us ? First you get a passport, then you join Facebook, now you have gotten rid of the big Craic stickers.

Very very very suspicious. :ninja:

Hahahaha

Hated the big sticker on there from day one. Loads thought it was a hire van. Some said it looked commercial. Whatever, I didn't​like it so it's gone. :)

Watch out for a strange, but familiar looking fellow around Scarva. he will be seen with a bike, a striped tee-shirt, a black Beret , a pencil mustache, with a string of alliums on the handle bars.

Mine has gone in to get the entire chassis cleaned, bead blasted where necessary, primed, painted and sealed. Purely as preventative maintenance. I am terrified of corrosion since my 08 navarra got condemned a year ago. Luckily Nissan picked up the bill for that. Haven’t got an exact price but not expecting it to be cheap, but be worth it to me for the peace of mind

I recently bought a cheap digital volt meter that plugs into the cigar socket. There was a frost on the ground the other day and I felt the campervan sounded different when I started it. I plugged in the volt meter and I checked the voltage this morning before I started the van and it was showing 11.8 volts so the starter batterry has be on the mains multi stage charger all day.

It is possible that your battery is on the way out, of had it been sitting for a while?

Gooutdoors Newtownaby have a great deal on at min if you have a discount card,if not u can buy one in store for £5. I got a 110ah battery for £89 comes with 2 year guarantee. I fitted it myself I am on 12 volt system and my old 75ah battery which came with the van when I bought it was on its way out.
Hope this helps.
