Hello Everyone 🙂
I'm still battling the water situation. Yesterday I got it all hooked up & it worked - then I went for a walk with the dogs, got back home . . . & it wasn't. I've been taking advantage of the warm weather & having a wash nearly every afternoon, it's nice to cool off; I got back & went into the bathroom, looking forward to that cooling off, pulled the trigger on the hose nozzle & nothing came out. I immediately checked the lights & they weren't working either 😞 The fuse had blown, I put a 50A in - it immediately blew, I tried a 30A, same thing, a 20A . . . ditto. So I've given up on the 12vt system, I think it must be something in that horrible mass of wires that I have no hope of working out. I've been into town, bought some 12vt wire, made a 12m 12vt lead - I'm about to hook the pump up directly to the batteries, by-passing the old 12vt system entirely. I have hooked up a 12vt light in the lounge room (I already had that) & I've replaced the rechargeable torch with a rechargeable spot light - the brightest light I've ever had, so I can use that everywhere else. Upon reflection I don't think the faulty rechargeable battery had anything to do with it as I recharge it on the 240w system & that hasn't been affected. I've had a little rain on & off lately, enough to fill my tank to the brim; I'm now guessing water has affected the 12v systems wiring somehow. I wasn't the one who put the 12v system together, so I don't know anything about it; that was an ex, I'm surprised it's lasted as long as it has, slowly I'm replacing all of what he did & as I do so I do have an idea about what I've done, which I think gives me half a chance of being able to fix it when/if {when} it breaks down again 🙂 So fingers crossed, that the pump has not been burnt out & that this 1 simple directly connected lead will give me water back.
Love to all that need or want it
