Has the same problem. Once I identified the correct key(I had it all along) I realised that the lock was not for turning. As it turned out the barrel was completely rusted. I removed the cap with a good twist from a vice grip. Obviously broke the lock. So had to pita new cap on. Not an easy find, in...

So there we driving along our merry way when the red light flashes and the needle drops! Drops, what is going on. The smoke/steam out the back didn't fill me with pleasure at any rate. Upon inspection we discovered the coolant temperate gauge sensor had popped out - all the coolant had therefore lea...

Hi all I'm in the fortunate position of having a couple of very good stitchers, so the re-upholstery will be done by them (well the foam will come from internet-land). I've looked at a couple of swatches of household furniture fabric and thought it too heavy for a camper. Anyone got advice on what f...

Well folks, that's all she wrote. The fridge is dead. Looks like ity's been sitting too long and the element has completely rusted through. Can't even be removed to instal a new one. If it's any consulation, you were quite correct. At least the trip problem has been solved, now just have to keep my ...

It's a common electrical problem with old elements, kettles, irons all cause this in the house. If I had a pound for every fault I go to that's the iron or kettle tripping the rcd then.......... Yes we found this a lot too. Electrical elements can begin to absorb moisture if they're not used for a ...

A quick and easy way to narrow down the problem is to run an extension lead out from the house and plug the fridge into that , if the house rcd trips it's your 240v element breaking down If it doesn't it's your internal 230v wiring. It's a common electrical problem with old elements, kettles, irons...

Initially it was the main rcd, but that's been narrowed to the circuit with the fridge. Everything seems to work ok 12v, it's just when I try to hook up to the mains.

Any advice folks? Having had a my trip switch pinging around I've traced the issue to the fridge, I'm in a 1990 hi-top following the autosleeper wiring as found in the wiki pages. I know that power is getting to the fridge cleanly, but the fridge itself seems to be causing the trip. Any suggestions ...

You have a fault the live is making short to the neutral. Either it has been wired wrong, the wiring is damaged, a fault in one of the consumers or water has got into one of the consumers. Guessing as you had to ask the question your not au fait with mains electricity might be best an electrician t...

HI all Just bought my happy bus camper and been playing around with bits and pieces. Only just received the mains hook up with 3 pin household adapter - if that's even the right thing - hoping to plug in and play some more. Upon plugging in and switching on not only did the happy bus trip but so did...
