Thanks for reply. I've been using a free standing omnidirectional spike aerial with ground plane. Works in most places but a few places have been struggling for clean signal. So when boosted it never works. Time to put in a fixed dedicated aerial. Would be fitted as per instructions, which means...

Thanks for reply. I have never used a signal booster, any signal corruption will get boosted too.

Thank you, guessed newer is better, being more digital oriented, than the older type. Hopefully someone will have had dealings with a newer omni directional aireal 😁

Thanks for reply. I have no room for the pole inside the van. Is why I was looking at the Omni directional version, it has no pole

Hi , has anyone fitted or know if this aireal is any good. Looked at the 270 with but not able to fit as nowhere for the mast to intrude into habitation area. The Omni directional has a small intrusion, so will fit into any cupboard. But pointless if no fit for purpose. Thanks

Do you know what size inverter is needed and would a modified sine wave work please?

Run a fused wire with 10amp fuse from + terminal of hab battery to + terminal cab battery. Remove fuse before starting the van. Or a bit more expensive, fit a trickle charger. Like this

looks like it is a housing clipped onto a base attached to the ceiling. Try a small flat head screwdriver into one of the little holes on the end and see if the tabs are indeed clips

Yes roof is strong enough up too where the roof starts to curve upwards.

Thanks for update on remedy

Majority of bill is timing belt. Not only mileage determines when to change, time is also a change point. If it's the first belt change then it's been on for over 10 years. Mine is changed every 5. Not knowing what engine you have, I think ten years is a couple of years into squeaky bum time...

mine didn't work well until I had batteries at full charge before travelling. This let all the power from the alternator go to fridge instead of trying to charge two batteries and power a fridge too.

Nice to hear the positive side of garages not just doom and gloom horror stories. 👍

Fitted new relay. Step working. Tested old relay, it is intermittent. So hopefully job's a good 'un. Thanks for help and input. 👍

Mine sits just where the chassis cab ends. As it's non alko chassis, it folds quite high. Plus mud guards fitted.

Not yet, van in storage, no 230v. I can change relay. After I had given relay some movement step was working as it should. I'll get as much pressure from the hose on site. Then GT85 it. Got a few cans for mountain bike 👍

Thanks for reply. Batteries are good. The only thing I'll put ACF50 on is the relay contacts. I get the part that the linkages need to be clean and lightly lubed. I would think about silicone spray as lube. But step moves freely, when it can be bothered. Absolutely no effort from the motor when...
