With 5 days to go until Damian and Hoges are heading down to the Camp Quality esCarpade, Damian figured it was time to get packing!
Box of spare parts and stuff...
Merlin supervising...
Two spare 10L fuel containers... check!
So... it wouldn't be esCarpade if there wasn't a last minute debacle... It was sprinkling a little, so Damian hit the windscreen wipers to clear the windscreen for the new dashcam he had just installed, when the dashcam and tripmeter turned off then back on again...
Thinking this was a bit odd, he did it again... and they turned themselves off then back on again...
Once more for the home crowd... with the same result.
Damian figured there might have been something shorting out, so he removed the cover from under the steering wheel - nothing looked untoward there...
Time to go under the bonnet to trace the wiring!
Finding where he had vampire tapped into the wiring loom to pick up the accessories power, Damian disconnected it and permanently powered it - hit the windscreen wipers and everything remained on as expected...
Time to run a new wire - this one into the fuse box under the dash.
