Re: No heat from front blowers
It is probably a faulty rheostat, otherwise known as a fan-speed resistor. It's found behind the large air intake under the bonnet. You can get new ones from Bongo land at https://bongoland.co.uk/product/heater- ... e-control/
Or second hand from Bongospares.

Re: Phil McFadden Diagnostic page ...
In the worst case scenario there's another version on the website www.partsouq.com When I've got a chance I will check my drawer full of CDs and DVDs. I think I made a copy of the Lush site some years ago. I will see if I can find it.

How Many Members?
A few people have recently enquired how many paid up members there are in Bongo Fury. Currently there are 895 in the club. Our peak was in April 2009 when we had 3,650 membersand there were 4 members of staff in Bongo Mission Control. Now it's only me, 3 mornings a week.

Re: 2025 Meetings
Hi Mick. By my count at least 9 of those attending don't actually own Bongos, although most did own one at some point! Having said that, although nothing is organised, we could all meet up for an informal session in the bar on Saturday night to share our experiences.
