The indicator flash rate on my newly installed taillight cluster seems a little fast. Apparantly, wiring a small resistor between Eth and the indicator LEDs is required to slow the rate. Some info on what is required would be appreciated. Ta.

Accc are not a complaint authority, Office of Fair Trading and the Aust. Association of Caravans can only mediate but can't force either party to attend or heed advice. How do you get help when you buy a new caravan and after 4 months I have only used it for 3 days. Four repairers and the van leaks badly fro...

Hey all, Im looking to meter my solar input so I have an idea of voltage and current from a 160W panel feeding into the dual battery.

One evening a man was at home watching TV and eating peanuts.He'd toss them in the air, and then catch them in his mouth In the middle of catching one, his wife asked him a question - and as he turned to answer her, a peanut fell in his ear. He tried and tried to dig it out but succeeded in only pushing it in deep...

I plan to take my newly acquired 2.4 ton van on a short trip to get a feel for it. Never had a van before, but have heaps of experience towing boats, campers and trailers. I own a 2018 isuzu MUX with very little mods other than a catch can, bull bar and tranny cooler. The test trip i envisage will be from the...

18 months ago I bought our caravan without going to look at it. The price was ok at the time, and looked good in the pictures.
