So, steady use of sharp knives and helpings of abrasive paper were used to carefully reduce the cams to match the relief of the barrel. The vanes within the housing were also too tight, so they had to be 'skimmed'. Jointly, both reducing the cams and reducing the vanes helped loosen the barrel, allowing it to spin when LOCKED.

Problem solved! Very Happy Cool


So, Uncle Norm- "Dragons Den" next series? Laughing Laughing

New to motorhomes and just got back from a small holiday in our Bessacarr E495 over the new year.
We love the motorhome but something that large and complicated will always have teething trouble.
The faults we have found so far:

Control panel shows Fresh water tank level at 16% when full.

Half the cupbord/locker locks are sticking, I have tried spraying with furniture polish (contains silicone). This has cured some locks but the others are still sticking.

Fresh water inlet cap will not lock - Talked to an engineer at discover and was told to boil the cap in water.

Door on the locker above TV space catches the wardrobe lockers side.

For 3 days the heating blower would not work, started working as we parked up the MH at end of holiday. - seemed to start working when I was playing with the control panel.

The MH has lots of good points, great lighting, loads of room, even when it was freezing outside the gas heater kept us nice and warm.






Hello Walnut

As I cannot send you a PM, can you send me an email with your vehicle details and your telephone number so that we can give you a call.

Thanks

Kath

Hi Walnut,
Is your photo of a C.L. near Rhayader? Sorry to go off topic but I think it is the same place I stayed for New Year! Did you have problems getting off your plot or did you use some sort of aid to traction? I would be interested to know. Thank you. Didi.

Hello and thanks for the great replies.

The pics are from a pub with campsite in Cheshire.
'The Shady Oak' near Beeston.
We where parked on a hardstanding.
They are offering free camping during Jan and Feb if you pre book your pitch.
Charge £2 for hook up.

Lovely pics!
Hope you enjoy your Bessy the folks at Swift are really helpful they will sort your problems for you.
We have just bought a Bolero Compact and absolutely love it. The only problem we had was our waste pipe freezing in minus 8 degrees in the lakes hardly Swifts fault. We should have left the waste tap open with a bucket underneath.
As for the Tank sensors this is our third Motorhome and none of them are accurate. You tend to learn from experience how much water you have left the sound of the pump is a good indicator Laughing . Enjoy your van lets hope we get a reasonable summer this year!
