Re: Headlights stopped working on low beam

Thanks! Replacing that anyway as another part of the story is that I sawed the protruding end of the stalk off to stop the steering wheel hitting it while I had to hold my full beam on manually for 60 miles in the dark [emoji23]

Headlights stopped working on low beam

Hi - I lost my dash lights and low beam the other eve. Checked for blown fuses and considered checking the relay but couldn’t find it. Fuses were fine so I just imagined it was a worn switch in the stork. On investigating further - I don’t seem to have 12v heading into the fuse. If I draw a 12v supp...

Portable Solar Panel thoughts…

Looking at a couple for going off grid (light use) Any thoughts or recommendations? Sought out these two - the JK one is half the weight of the OffGrid, just a bit sceptical of JK quality. :-) Similar price. https://www.offgridcamper.co.uk/product/120w-12v-lightweight-folding-solar-panel-kit-with-mp...

Re: Fuel line replacement issue / idiot [emoji3]

Just sorting this. My engine bay hose on the feed line is a little short. Is it ok to have a few inches of the small diameter polyamide piping or should I attach a longer hose so there is no polyamide pipe showing beyond the bulkhead grommet? Thanks all https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220716/74ad...

Re: Fuel line replacement issue / idiot :-)

Although I bet your mechanic could.

He did - I purchased the feed and return line kit from Brickwerks….

Thanks all - will get this sorted and hopefully back on the road with confidence.

Re: Fuel line replacement issue / idiot :-)

:shock:

It’s the first bit of paid work I’ve had done outside MOT stuff. Just assumed a simple job like that would have been straight forward. Cost me a lot of time scratching my head and breaking down tho. Will stick to YouTube and this forum in future :-)

Thx Mocki!
