We have bought a 1991 Coromal Lowline Poptop which has had the fridge replaced. The cabin and outside lights do not work on 12 volt but the fridge does. Where can I get a 12 volt wiring diagram to trace where the light wires come from. This was the only low poptop that would fit under our garage roof. Thanks...

Hi all. I am heading to Barossa in early November. I was going to free camp at Greenock Reserve. In Camps 8 it states 24 hours. Bugger, I wanted to stay 3 nights. Does anyone know how strict they are ? If they charge a "small fee" surely it wouldn't matter staying 3 nights as long as it isn't packed ?

Hi, Can anyone explain how the duel fuel tanks and instrument panel works? I have 138 litres (1 x 93l and 1 x 45l). The indicator can show I have less than 100 klms range left but I can only get 100 or so litres in the tank. This happens when around town (about 14klms / 100klm) and also when towing (about 20-22...
