Oakworth is near Haworth Keighley.
Was thinking of trying to attach the wire directly. Will try that next.
If I test with my voltmeter what setting do I put It on? I know the setting for battery but little else.

Re: Coolant alarm problem
I got the extra ring connectors and the screw. Thanks for sorting. Have fitted it (took two goes) - and if anything it's worse now. Alarm sounded for around 5 minutes on idle and then went off for another 5 mins and then back on and off over the next ten minutes While I parked up it was sounding qui...

Re: Coolant alarm problem
The battery fitter seemed to think 12.1 was okay
And after two diagnosis I’m going to accept that for now.
I’ll email Jo now. She sent me a load of screws recently so I’ll just ask her for the connector.
Thanks for the help. I’ll post back with any updates.

Re: Coolant alarm problem
Just one more thing!
I’m new to the world of terminal rings. Which is the best fit ?

Re: Coolant alarm problem
Just taken it to a local tyre/battery place and they did a drop test on the main battery and said it was fine. Holding a very strong charge apparantly. Before that I unscrewed the alarm screw about half way and used an old toothbrush on it. I also noticed the contact ring/eyelet looked either rusty ...

Re: Coolant alarm problem
Re; the battery suggestion. There' a Kwik Fit near where I work, so I took the Bongo in for their free battery test, fully expecting the worst - but hoping a new battery would cure the problem. They tested both starter and leisure battery - I don't think they were sure which was which! The report sa...

Re: Coolant alarm problem
Tested the battery cold yesterday morning and it read 12.1
Is that a bit rubbish?

Coolant alarm problem
Had some issues with my coolant alarm that have got progressively worse over the last several months. The alarm goes off 95% of the time and is driving me crazy. Over the last year it used to continue for several minutes after starting, so I cleaned the screw and this fixed the issue.. for a few wee...

Re: MOT history
No - not Bristol Bob - It's in Brighouse. They do servicing there and he seems to know his stuff. I'm going back for a proper look/drive and will follow all advice - much appreciated. Also tempted to the dark side by this beast! http://www.candacars.co.uk/used-motorhome-volkswagen-transporter-t4-19-...

MOT history
Had a quick look at an N reg Bongo at a dealers yesterday and aside from a few scuffs here and there which the dealer promised would be fixed up it was a decent looking van. The underside appeared to be waxoyled and the engine sounded decent. The head was a bit oily, but he mentioned replacing a roc...

Re: Tough Northerners in Vests 2012
I only live a mile down the road in Oakworth (home to 3 Bongo's that I know of so far). It'll be seriously cold here in March so I think I'll stay warm at home unless there's any Bongoing activities outside of the camp site? A Bongo Parade would be good!

Re: Fuel Gauge
Cheers. I'll have a look, although I'm not sure I can get in that way as we have a side conversion behind the drivers seat.
