AB,

Huge thanks for everything you’ve done to build the forum and the community over the years. Like a lot of us, I’ve learned a ton here from the people who’ve shared their knowledge and time so...

Hi NP team,

The time has come to hand over the torch to someone who will have more time to invest in our great forum.

Over the last 15 years of NP we have all built up an amazing...

Next was to make up a new bracket to hold the Rear Anderson plugs and a few 12v lecky bits for the rear as previously it was all zip tied up to the cargo barrier....

It's taken a lot longer than we expected, but we are now back 'on the road', currently sweltering in SA. For anyone interested here a squiz inside (& out) of the OKA.

Thanks Ross, a/c turned out to be the switch on the dash was reverse wired - like WTF???? So as I pushed it in to energise the compressor clutch, it switched it off, which is why I have been thinking...

Bloody cars! I had a look at the a/c again today, had to be simple. I noticed the clutch on the a/c compressor was not engaged and the pump was making a knocking noise - so after chasing my tail I...
