Well in conclusion I will keep the pathfinder but trade the RED car in for a black one that way every one except Purdy is happy! The good bit Pam is I got to buy Plodders sun canopy and Sash the bedroom! although at the moment sash's bedroom is in my study.

The 'van has green and grey 'splashes' on it Declan - does that count in my defence?!!  I would have happily kept Zippy, but ScampisOH wants to camp all year (even I don't fancy that under canvas!!) and, although he did try, he never took to canvas.  I had to compromise.  But in my heart, I'll always be a canvas camper.  Please let me stay on this forum - I'm not a bad person

Oh OK Scampi.
Since your good advice has helped so many of us FC people, we'll make an exception for you..... If you can tell me what way the drainage tap should be, then you pass the test..

You remember the yellow-handled water drainage tap in beside the water heater .. should it be standing upright or should it be down - to close the drain ?

I know I drained it before winter but can't remember if up means open or closed !!

Cheers.

To be honest Declan, eventhough the water heater in the caravan is identical, I can't remember which way is open and which is closed!!  In the 'van, if the drain tap is open I can't get any pressure on the cold water, never mind the hot, so I can tell without trying to fill the heater and dumping the water on the grass!

Hope it's ok to add on this existing post...it is relevant totopic (I think!!). The toilet is an electric flush???? Does it still function when you are not able to access EHU? If so, how?

Many thanks

Jackie

Hi,

From memory it works on 12V, so will flush without EHU. Again, from memory, the ehu only fed the battery charger unit & the mains sockets (via the circuit breakers).

I don't know how many flushes you get from a fully charged battery, but I'd say more than enough ;)

It works on 12V, whether or not you are on hook-up (the electricity unit under the bed works as a transformer, so that your 12V electric system (water pump, lights, blown air fan and toilet flush) will work without draining the battery when you are on mains.  So if you aren't on mains, it all works from the battery.  No need to panic though - we managed 8 nights away on one 110 amp battery (we had a fully-charged 85amp in the car 'just in case' but didn't need it).  Just remember not be tempted to try using the fridge on 12V - the battery will go flat in a matter of hours!!  When not on mains, use the fridge on gas.
