Going to be a big bill

[mossypossy]

Dropped the beast off to get the defective Trauma heater fixed.
Stick a new charge controller in as well, stress test gaslow system, fit new leisure batteries.

Place your bets.

Interestingly or not
We call ours the BEAST ..most unfairly

Tired of jump starting it after three or four weeks of sitting idle.
Solar panel will be able to trickle charge starter battery. A thing that most modern rigs will probably do as a matter of course.

MOT and service is next month.
In for a penny......

Only hurts once.

Only hurts once.

Thats what the bishop said to the actress.

 

[st3v3]

£1750 plus the cost of the batteries

And try anything once, twice to be sure

Is that what "The actress said to the Bishop" ?

7/6.

Lot depends where it went. Some of these professional charge astronomic prices.

My MOT is next month I’m hoping it’s a cheap one after the engine rebuild in September but probably not as I defo need 2 tyres and a rear light cluster. But fingers crossed.

I bet the Truma turns out to be the biggest expense. Though it could be batteries if you specified 'leisure' batteries. Anytime the L word comes up, so does the price.

Best of luck.

Air bag light came on yesterday and stayed on; MOT next week. Still with my £175 a week pension I'll not notice the bill.

 

[mossypossy]

I have had a bad charging system for a long time. Driving does not charge my leisure batteries. Relying on solar only.
Was OK during 24 hour daylight in Norway. Reason why we could not last two days in December in the UK.

Not worried about bill really. Still a cheap way to explore the world.

What do you mean by stress test the gas system, leak test?

 

[mossypossy]

Call it degrading names until it works properly.

 

[mossypossy]

All fixed.
Boiler was just being over sensitive with crappy electrical setup.
Now have a fancy Bluetooth Victron charge controller and a split charger along with two new batteries.

Not too massive a bill.

£800
