Re: I've stained my awning!

Thank you for the response, just to update: I tried scrubbing it to death with washing up liquid/brush. I tried Fenwick's awning cleaner from Amazon. I tried diluted bleach on a small area. I even tried a small amount undiluted bleach. Nothing has budged it at all. 🤷🏻‍♂️ I really have no idea what t...

I've stained my awning!

Hi, I've got a pull out awning installed on the side of my Bongo, and I've managed to stain the inside with orange marks because I didn't dry it properly before storing. (Yes I'm an idiot :roll: ) I wonder if anyone has any advice on how to remove the stains? Here are some images: https://ibb.co/0tq...

Re: Bongo Wiring Manuals

Hi, are the manuals still available to download from anywhere? I couldn't see any links on page 1 of this thread.
I've got an electrical issue with my fan speeds. My mechanic tells me the connection isn't grounded, so I thought I'd try and find some info on it.
I've got a 97 2.5 TD

Thanks

Re: Auto gearbox stuck in lower gears

Just the faceplate to one that reads in mph. Although I had to take a lot of it apart to get to it, I'm pretty certain that I put everything back together as it was.

Re: Auto gearbox stuck in lower gears

Thanks for your replies, really good info there. I have a hunch it may be the throttle sensor. The gear changes themselves sound fine, it just takes way more speed sometimes to get it to change up. I've only had the van since March, and it only started doing this recently. The only thing I've change...

Re: Auto gearbox stuck in lower gears

No no, please teach!
I know nothing about these things.
I tried when it was still warm and running, maybe I'll leave it on for longer and move the selector before trying it again. (you mean the gear selector right?)
Thank you for your reply.

Auto gearbox stuck in lower gears

Hi Bongo people, I wonder if you can help me... I have a 2.5TD Auto from 1997 and I'm having a problem with the auto gear box. Basically the gears are sticking as I get to 2nd or 3rd, and also randomly change down to 2nd sometimes when I pick up speed on perfectly flat roads. It seems to only happen...
