Third Thing Now Sorted .. (we hope)
December 21, 2022 in New Zealand ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C
After not having the fridge working on "gas" since arriving at camp we have spent the morning getting it all sorted at the RV Service Centre. It only needed a new thermostat, a new igniter, a new circuit board that controls it all, plus a new bank balance (help!!) It would seem that the lithium batteries are not very friendly with motorhome compoinentary. Oh well... tonight we will be able sleep without the musical charms of beep, beep, beep, beep.......
Off to visit an old friend this afternoon then the family are coming over for a bbq tonight.Read more

You are having a baptism by fire Maurice & Christine, wasn’t aware that lithium batteries would cause the repairs you had to do but I am not an Auto Electrician. For your reference, our Scout (Sasannach) had a 200 amp hr lithium battery in it as well. Still I bet you are still very happy enjoying the motorhome life, just initial teething problems.

TravelerYou are quite right John. We must take these things in our stride and move forward.
