Re: roof problem (only going up slightly)

The motors are underneath the black plastic covers at the rear (pull off), mounted on the AFT roof itself; Mechanical construction here http://lushprojects.com/bongopartsmk2/code=6340A&cat=a2ajra0a&vin=&imgno=02of02.html Electrical here 1997 Page_116 It sounds like lubrication of the dri...

Re: That flashing rooflight thing!!

This thread has some good pictures http://www.igmaynard.co.uk/bongo/forum/viewtopic.php?p=508046#p508046 the problem will almost certainly be either the switch itself or the mechanical arrangement that presses the switch - the little off white block, which is plunger and spring. There is one each si...

Re: Stalling Engine.

Several possible causes but one simple one to check is that you maybe getting a vacuum in the fuel tank from a blocked breather hole in the fuel cap, try releasing the cap and drive without it sealed up, if that cures it then take the cap indoors and soak it in warm soapy water and clear the breathe...

Re: Newbie Owner - Hold light problem?

That sounds like a faulty Speedo chip to convert from Km/Hr to MpH. They are mounted behind the display; http://www.g8dhe.net/bongo_images/speedo_chip.jpg If the chip goes faulty or gets disconnected then the Speedo stops displaying and the pulses from the Speedo to the ECU means that the ECU flags ...

Re: pre-fitted reversing sensor back light

12Volt are the right ones, car batteries are only a nominal 12volts, when charged batteries are 12.6 Volts, when charging they can go up to 14.6 (Max.) when flat they can be as low 10-10.5.

Re: Diagnostic Connector with VoltMeter

I was sort of replying to
could this indicate a faulty kph-mph chip or does this signal come directly from the sensor (and can anyone point me to it!).

Re: Diagnostic Connector with VoltMeter

The sensor that drives the Speedo itself is the road speed one on the output shaft, that sends pulses suitable for Km/Hr, if a chip has been fitted then normally its on the back of the display (4 leads - power and a pair that intercept the sensor signal) and drives the Speedo - the Speedo then sends...

Re: Engine cuts out when climate control activated

Yup, coincidence, unless you have a wiring fault which has been disturbed by changing the filter etc. but that won't be easy to prove if its intermittent, but might be worth waggling the cable forms in the area and see if anything cuts out ...

Re: size of fuse on willinton kit? could i uses fuse wire?

No don't try to fit fuse wire, please :-( The fuse normally has a rating on it or a colour, but the fuse types have varied over the years he has been doing the kit. Have you a photo or what colour is it ? Probably best to give him a call on the Ebay details page and ask him, he might slip a couple i...

Re: leisure battery charging probs,weird fault?? any tips?

You say that the L/B voltage never falls below 12.7 volts, yet the power isn't getting to the devices; So check the voltage at the fuses, both sides, measure the voltage between battery terminal and the fuse then repeat between the chassis of the vehicle and the fuses is there any significant differ...

Re: Air-con in winter,well now actually............

That could well be the situation. Check the usual things; 1. Do the Fans work, step thru the range using the Fan button, can you here the fans and feel the air blowing? 2. Check that the Flaps work on both sides, the Drivers side for direction the ait comes out in and the Passenger side for heat bei...
