Its been used off road init, prob had a bit of abuse & things get worn. Ive got a full set of HD shafts/cv's & 2 new uprated diffs
so I'll be fitting them but first im pulling the transfer box out to see if its got any busted parts & take it from there.

Yer they've been in the business of fixing heaps for a while, it is well built but I think there has been bits swapped/removed before
it was sold. The air compressor for the locking diffs was deffo removed.
 
Mucked about with W's Pluriel today, doing some of the advisories.
Windscreen wipers, piece of pistachio.;)
One of the two number plate bulbs. WOT a pile of poop.
Managed eventually to pop the old one out, but failed miserably to fit a new one, even with a mirror with a light in and the toast tongs, just too tight, too awkward. did get it "in" as I thort but it didn't light up.
Was forced to remove the panel from the lower tailgate to access the three nuts and squeeze the clips so that the bulb holder holder and rain screen thing fell away. Then I could see how to access the bulb holder, push it out and then change the bulb.
Right pain but not difficult, just took a while.:rolleyes:
Then had a look at the "slightly discoloured" front indicator bulb, which didn't seem to be any different from the other one. :rolleyes:
To see how to access it I looked first at the opposite one which would be "easier" to get at. Again torch, mirror on a stick etc. No flipping idea even which one it is. Typical modern front lights cluster. So hard to gets hands on. I looked to try and see how to get the light unit out, again not as obvious as you would hope. Having no manual doesn't help at all. They don't make one for this variant.
The other one is in front of the battery box and another fuse box. It is staying as it is for now!
 
Have finally found a really good website with "how tos" for Honeywell 3 position, motorised valves, so I am now more hopeful of getting this job done, one day,

On a positive note re heating, got the Frog leccy bill today. Bizarrely low considering that I have been forced to leave it on, in 4 sections, all the time. (The stoopid room stats, have all failed bar a few so I cannot use the differing tariffs as I normally would, to avoid the expensive time of day. i.e. daytime!

Beginning to think that maybe the huge blocks of concrete, that make the floors work like huge night store heaters, are working better than we ever knew they could. But I'm waiting to see if this isn't just a flash in the pan and when it gets really cold..... ??

To be clear, the bill is for €60.90.
Of which only €10.77 is for actual electricity consumed.:eek:
Being connected to the network is €36.34 (for 2 months)
The rest is tax.

But previously it was about €100, for 2 months when we were absent. Although it does have to be said that the price will drop by about 10% next year. :):)
 
Think I may have just solved the central heating problem.
And it has been staring me in the face all the time.
According to the outer cover of the previous valve it is a 3 position diverter valve.
The plumberer replaced it with a 3 way mid position valve.
They is not the same, as I now know. And as he should flipping-well have known.
I DID tell him we couldn't have CH only.
So he was trying to wire up an orange to an apple system.
And the sparks didn't notice either.
Wot a pair of eejits.
Before the new piggy-backed on programmer was fitted the system only ever had HW only, or HW and CH. We were quite happy with that, and when we found the tenant had had the new programmer fitted it still worked the same, it just did the timing which the old one didn't.
It is possible that the bloke who fitted it played with the wiring but he never went the whole hog and fitted a mid-position valve.
When I replace the old one or like with like it'll be interesting to see how it works!
