Re: Issues since being laid-up

There is a filter inside the fuel tank, it's on the end of the pickup pipe only accessable if you take the top of the fuel tank. Instead just blow back to the tank from the fuel filter to clear it. Thanks for the heads-up on this, I wasn't aware that it existed. I did this today, I used a tyre infl...

On...

Re: Issues since being laid-up

Have you drained the diesel tank and put fresh diesel in? After such a long lay up it will have gone off and gummy. This will block up your filters and injection system. Yes, I treated with biocide, left for 2 weeks, run the engine, then changed the fuel filter as said in previous post. The filter ...

Re: Issues since being laid-up

Well not much further on with these issues 😞 I managed to fault find the roof problem, I traced all the wiring, cleaned switch contacts etc. I get the bleeping from the roof module now but the roof still won't raise. I put power directly to the motors at the plug at the roof module, but no noise fro...

Re: Login issue
