took the bus for mot today.
not a good start really, caught the rear maker light on a fence and broke that,
plus scratched the rear corner.
got to test station and abs light came on.
anyway test done, need a new abs sensor. ordered.
on the way home, all the dash panel went off,hope its just a fuse.
back next week and hope it passes.(rant over, keep calm):)

Where do you go for mot @ianandkath Just wondering as we use Millers for MOT and servicing, always good to have an alternative for the bus just in case. Good luck next week, I'm sure it'll pass.

standish service station is the closest for me.
didnt know millers did them, thanks
Millers are good, it's the main depot at Much Hoole. We're not the only RV so they do have experience and have an account with Duncan at Star Spangled if need American parts.

standish have done a lot of rvs, and they are ok to deal with.

That's good to know too as not far from us. Might use them in Sept when our mot is due
they only charged me £49 for the mot and half price when i take it back.
all lights on dash now working, don't ask, i just pulled the fuses to check,
put them back , now all fine.
sensor ordered from duncan at star spangled banner, so hope it will be quick.
brake being checked on sunday, so hope its just a sticking pin

We had the same with one of our lights. Checked all connections, bulbs, fuses and would intermittently cone on or off when it felt like it. Suddenly started working again and no problems since!!!

Mine going for MOT end of April. I keep getting a warning message 'Left tail light not working' although the lights are all working fine. I hope my garage will be able to get rid of the warning. (Mercedes)
