Good point.......

Looks good. Agreed - 10 mins max - my 15 includes the cup of tea to enjoy when you sit back & enjoy your handy-work!

All was well for me on fitting this addition, it was approx 10 mins for me too, I was thinking that perhaps I would use some of that split conduit to keep the wires for both alarms more tidy, mmmmmm another little job to keep me from the decorating .
All worked when tested and the instructions were straight forward, I am going to produce a factsheet on fitting over the weekend, I have taken photos of the stages of fitting for inclusion in the factsheet.

With all the alarms that are available they ALL give us Bongo owners piece of mind, whichever one(s)you choose to fit and as I always say............you pays your money......

I fitted the Hi Coolant Alarm add-on at the weekend & it went very smoothly. It took just under an hour, but only because I had to remove the instrument panel / speedo as I'd previously fitted the Low Coolant alarm behind the circuit board so I could mount the LED above the temperature gauge. In addition, I had to remove the cowl around the steering wheel as the cruise control stalk was getting in the way of the speedo removal.

The only modification required was to fit a solder ring tag to the red positive wire so I could take a feed from the back of the instrument panel. That was just 'cos I wanted to match how I'd wired the original alarm.

Testing the unit was easy: dip the spade connector into the top of the expansion tank & after about 5 seconds the alarm starts to gently sound & then build to full volume after a couple of seconds.

Haydn, I'm very impressed with your addition to the Low Coolant Alarm. It now covers the scenario I had when my head gasket failed, as well as when I had a airlock due to a pin-hole in the bleed hose. Nice one
