New GPS in the motorhome - and still problems

Advertisement

At midsummer we set off with the motorhome towards Poland and the Czech Republic. So how has it gone? Have we sorted out all the problems after recovery on the motorway and the new errors that occurred after the visit to the workshop? No, not really. It's a race against the clock to get the campervan ready for departure - but it is must Go! Today we have at least got a new GPS in the motorhome.

Two faults fixed - two more to go

After the first (7 months long!) visit to the workshop, we have now taken the motorhome to another workshop, an Iveco workshop. At this workshop, they have fixed two faults: they have fixed a warning light that was lit regarding the airbag that the inspection triggered and they have repaired the spindle joint, which was broken.

The other two faults (the starter battery not charging via the living area batteries and the reversing camera not working) were too complicated, so they didn't want to fix them ...

Peter has looked at the caravan batteries today and found a fuse that may be blown, but we don't really think this will solve all the problems. What do we do now? We don't really know. We have been given the phone number of a motorhome repair shop, but the question is whether they have time to fix the problems before midsummer ... We also suspect that this will unfortunately be a lengthy process with the insurance company.

New GPS in the motorhome

One thing we have fixed is a new GPS! Our previous GPS was many years old and could not handle coordinates (it only took street addresses). It was high time for a new one! We have acquired a GPS from Garmin (Camper 660 LMT-D), which we bought at Elgiganten. This GPS contains, among other things, 9000 addresses to campsites in Europe. This will be good, we hope!
