Need a little help please. Travelling across France at the moment and for the last two weeks the van has not missed a beat. He is a Westy T25 1984 water cooled 1.9 petrol. When driving today I noticed a knocking / thumping noise from under the van. It's enough to feel vibrations through the floor. I...

I've got some of those but in different places. I'll be keeping an eye on this post to find out what they are for.

You can run each set of pos and neg wires from the solar panel to a double solar socket and run the single from that to the controller. As CovKid said you don't need to worry about the split charge when the engines running. The controller will dump the excess. Personally I'd keep the split charge fo...

I fill my Westy with a hose. I brought one of those expandable blue hoses that I keep in the van just for fresh water - rather than using the garden hose

I have a westy with the swing out table and have driven with the table swung out in front of the kids - they were belted in. Re setting the table - tried it once but the wine glasses and 2 plates of dinner went flying when going round a roundabout - not recommended

I have a Westy and the pump on that is a submersible in the water tank. I've just replaced mine with a Whale one from Amazon. 10 ltrs a min is all the pressure you'll need. I think it cost around £12

Why not replace the 110v socket? Above the circuit breaker. That's where mine is

I've never used mine but if memory serves I links to a wire going into a grommet next to the gas inlet in the floor. Mines not attached to the inlet pipe - at least I don't think so. Glad its all sorted

You can tighten it (and possibly adjust the horizontal) by peeling back the inner door card - it's held in pace by a screw from behind.

It's the s2 switch that turns on the lpg heater. The column on the left is water level x 3 plus the bottom one (green) is an indicator that should light up when the fridge is on gas but the red one at the bottom on the right is lpg warmer.
