We are back home now after leaving on Sunday morning and arriving back early afternoon. On the drive home the charging light was glowing bright, and not flickering as it was before, I have checked the voltage and the alternator was pumping 14.8v into the battery, when the engine was switched off I had 12.9 volts in the battery. I did notice that the alternator belt was slack so I might get away with tightening it up.
Otherwise it means a new alternator which I have found on the web.
talking about finding parts on the web I have found a parts specialist for my motorhome so I can order the parts I need for doing my own maintenance.
I have some other checks to do before we set off again, The water heater, and the fridge too, I might get away with using the gas on the fridge until I decide which way to go as regards fitting a new fridge.
The passenger seat like the drivers seat is on a metal box and is a little high for sheila her legs are an inch or so off the floor, and it makes her a little insecure. so I am going to make a wooden foot rest for her.
Also I am working on an idea for foot boards in the shower tray.
One success, was the bio gel washing liquid in the cassette toilet no chemical smells, just a nice flowery odour and it works a treat on breaking up the solids even after a couple of days.
Now i am planning another trip away a little further this time maybe down to Loch Morlich and Glenmore forest for three or four days back home for three days then off again to Rosemarkie on the Black Isle for dolphin watching, the campsite is right on the beach overlooking the Moray Firth.
the have a resident pod of Bottlenose dolphins that swim past at least once a day.
