Hi,
I have multiple electrical issues with the hiace I just bought (not sure if they are related).
The fan (AC) is not working as well as the hazard and reverse lights and the honk. It looks like all fuses are good.
Any advices on how to tackle those issues would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

I have a 2005 Swift Kontiki 610 Low Profile and just been doing my usual pre winter check. I should say at the outset we are still amateurs re van electrics despite having driven around Europe and the Middle East over the past decade or so. Anyway ,to my surprise, the leisure battery reading was...
I’m currently in the home-buying process, and some of the homes I’m looking at have Smart Meters installed. Thankfully, I live somewhere where we can easily opt-out and have an Analogue Meter installed by the utility company, so making that modification would not be too difficult. However, I’m...

Hello all.
For years now I've used Phillips Hue smart bulbs in my 3, ceiling mounted lounge lights and have therefore never needed to switch them individually.
