    Unhappy Desperately need Wiring Help - Missing out on a xmas camping holiday

    Hi. I have come across my partners four wheel drive forum and thought I would see if a xmas miracle could happen.
    First of all, a little back story of our troubles. We, (well my partner) has been in the wars over the last 12 months. From falling of a ladder at work 12 months ago, only just having surgery 1 month ago on his wrist. To helping his Father tune his E.H. Holden, when told his dad to start the car, but at the time it was in gear, so it ran over my partner, pinning him against the car and the shed wall. It tore some muscle in his knee & ankle, which we could not afford to have anything done about it, so he's limping around in pain most of the time. Its all very depressing for him (and me) cause we cant go and do things we normally do. And especially for him, as we have a 8yr old and a 1yr old son that he has trouble even picking up. Anyway, enough of our troubles. Sure everyone has a story.
    We bought a 91 nissan Patrol that we thought was a good car. Well it is a great car except the dodgy bugger who wired it all up. Something about twin battery wiring and coil and gas wiring or something like that. (i heard the name of those things when he has been out there trying to sort it out, swearing about them, lol). So it has stopped us from going camping over the xmas holidays with the kids because we cant afford to have someone repair it. If anyone on the forum is from Mildura area and knows how to rewire a dodgy wiring job out of the goodness of their heart or maybe a box of beer, we would be so happy and might actually have a xmas holiday. we can only pray to santa!.

    Certainly had your share of bad luck alright, Sorry to hear.
    Hope your hubby/Partner Hits recovery mode sooner rather than later. Sounds like he needs a good break.
    Sorry cant help with your delemer, and i sure hope there is someone out there that can help you out.
    No matter what pans out i hope you, your partner and the kids all have an enjoyable xmas. You still have each other and in tough times thats all that matters.
    Stay safe and all the best.

    Use the members map function and pm local people
    Whoever appeals to the law against his fellow man is either a fool or a coward.
    Whoever cannot take care of themselves without that law is both.
    For a wounded man shall say to his assailant,
    'If I live, I will kill you. If I die, You are forgiven.'
    Such is the rule of honour.

    Oh and maybe you might want to convince him to change his name (bad055), could be attracting bad luck.
    Just a thought for those who believe in that sort of thing, and Remember that whatever you pay attention to grows in your mind.
    If it be a series of missfortunes or good encounters, what you focus on is what you get, not necessarily when we want it but it does come.
    Posative thoughts will win in the end.
