Ensuring fresh water access
(Preview)
I'm a newbie, so this may seem to be a dumb question, and am curious as to how the plumbing in a van works. We have an Eco Tourer with 2 X main tanks and 1 X fresh water tank. There is a switch to activate the pump and a selector for tanks - I assume this is a common set-up. My question relates to the situation wher...

I have a CF 50 AC VER B. S/No 10026206 which switches off as soon as connected to 12V, and on 240, has no temp control. Panel says -6, but inside temp is -20. I'm guessing I had a dud thermistor, and probably a dud board. Can anyone point me in the right direction as I'd like to have a go at fixing this myself. I'...
