We got to Skye last week but the above would not work on either battery or electric hook up. They worked a few weeks ago so any ideas where the loose wire must be. One night the lights did come on them,selves and then went off again so I am certain its not a fuse blown. Eddis autoqest peugot boxer 10 yrs old.:cry:

Welcome to the forum

Firstly welcome to the forum.

I am sure you will get some suggestions re the issue with the lights etc.,

If they have come on, then it suggest it is a bad earth or loose wire. It is a case of hunting the circuits until you find where the issue is.. not much fun I know... Suggest you get yourself a multimeter that will allow you to check the circuits. It can be a case of a bad fuse connection.. like dirty.. the fuse holder as well as the fuse needs to be checked.

Start from the Battery and work to the control panel and from the control panel outwards. I presume the battery is OK? have you checked it?

Bob

sounds like a corroded earth strap or battery terminal on the leisure battery as different circuits are affected and the earth is the only common connection.
