All my led strips in my Rapido motor home went dim these were factory fitted so did not know where to start, started with fuses and worked my way around with multi meter, found a loose earth on one connection tightened up and now lights perfect, in fact seem better than they have ever been.(y)

Not fixed but have installed x2 LED flexi reading/map lights in cab area so we can read without having any main lights on, Also made a laundry shute by unscewring the top step inbetween the 2 single beds and made it pivot for easy opening - which when open leads into the garage/storage, by having a carver box or laundry bag directly underneath the step, just a case of lifting the step an throw ya dirty knickers down there ;)

Tomorrow .... o_O ... gotta be there at 8.00 am! Fortunately it's only 5 mins down the road so not far to go ... but I am NOT looking forward to it as I remember how painful it was afterwards when I had the other one done ... :( at least I can amuse myself by watching them do it ... its fascinating! :)
i had a hand operated on under local and watched them pin the tendons out of the way yes it realy is fascinating to watch

Definitely watching it again! Last time they found that I have an extra nerve branching off and that they weren't were they should have been ... they even took photos to use as a teaching aid!

Gave the motor some TLC today, washed, hot waxed, Auto Glym super resin and then extra gloss top coat to finish it off.

Had it 11 years this May and doesn't look so bad for an old motor even if I say so myself. It's still has the same battery and, apart from 3 that I've changed, has nearly all the same bulbs as when I first took delivery all those years ago:)

I had that problem whilst in France and then I fitted a push button switch wired into the tap wire under sink , ready for when it breaks again at least I can still use the tap.
