got up today and desided to remove all the windows on the motorhome so i could reseal them:thumb:
a job that needs doing every 3 years not because there's a leek
first job charge the batteries on the bat drill x2:thumb:
2nd job remove palmet and curtains,remove all the screws from first window from the inside:thumb:
remove window from the outside,and clean off old sealer from both the opening and the window :thumb:
reseal window and refit,this is when i noticed a funny smelllike a burning electrical smell
nothing is on 240 or 12v side,so i sorts of ignores it ,put the surrond around that hold's the window in, a starts a screw with a hand screwdriver just to hold everthing in place,pick up all the screws and locates them all in thier hole's and picks up my battery drill and jesus its so hot i cant hold it,so throw's it out the door and goes and look's and the batterie is smokingpull's the battery out and its almost at the point of catching fire
so check's the drill with the other battery and all is well:thumb:
so good job i did'nt stop for a cuppa as i could have had a fire on my hands and lost the motorhome
i think one of the nicads has gone bad in the battery pack and shorting out:Sad:
