Re: Electrical issue with leisure battery and blowing fuse
OK well the Blue wire into the old fuse box picks up on the +12v from the battery (upper connector) - this is NOT normally how it would be wired, it should be plugged into the lower of the two connectors as this then runs to the Radio and Sockets and other ancillary circuits, this way the LB powers ...

Re: AA Vehicle Check - Mileage Discrepancy
Yes my records for both vans sometimes show Miles others Km because who ever read it forgot that it actually records in Kms and just ticked the Miles box when they filled in the paperwork!

Re: CRUISE CONTROL
The favourite one for Bongo's was the Waeco MS 50 Cruise Control however they haven't been available for quite sometime, I think occasionally they used to pop-up on eBay but not seen one for a while now.

Re: Instrument cluster bulbs
The part numbers are listed here https://lushprojects.com/bongopartsmk2/code=6115A&cat=a2ajra0a&vin=&imgno=02of02.html#12 however no wattage is specified but it will be quite a low wattage possibly 1.2 Watt as its internal and you don't want a lot of heat being generated inside the rest of the unit.

Re: Gearbox Solenoids
I have the gearbox manual and normally, depends on version, you can replace either the group of solenoids or individual solenoids.
You will need to read the manual to locate section etc. but has some very helpful diagrams for the solenoids;

Re: Charge light on but battery is charging
It could be an earthing fault on the wire going to the lamp, or a fault inside the alternator, not able to give much more advice as its a rather simple circuit! +12v - to lamp - to alternator and switching to earth.

Re: Charge light on but battery is charging
The charge light is controlled directly by the alternator, it provides an earth once the alternator is running and operating see diagram below;

Hence it might be worth checking further with the alternator ...

Re: Electric window motor replacement
Ah my error, I was thinking of the door lock motors, your referring to the actual window motors! Those are normally pretty rugged but it could be the brushes or just if not more likely a jammed mechanical mechanism in the scissor jacks that lift the glass up and down see here https://lushprojects ...

Re: Help: 2.5TD Thermostat orientation
The conical section faces downwards and the flat plate at the top seals off the top inlet pipe coming direct from the engine. Spring up in your description rather than downwards, it also has a notch in the mounting plate for alignemnt.

Re: Hello and 2.0 problem.
Your aware that until the coolant has warmed up the ECU won't allow you to go into highest gear? You need to run it for 10-20 minutes before it will engage the highest gear.

Re: Quick question regarding replacement ABS sensor
Yes that is visually correct, they come in all sorts of prices, the actual sensors are common it seems so you can actually get even cheaper variations normally with a different plug that can be adapted! Be aware however it often requires the fixing bolt for the sensor to be drilled out as they get ...

Re: Low Revs and Fuel Smell
The Lambda sensor can't be ruled out totally, the manual has a lot of ticks covering many different areas of the engine. Its often the problem with intermittent faults/symptoms because as soon as you start altering anything your never totally sure if its actually affected the problem or just the ...
