Thanks. I hadn’t come across this risk. So as you say, for the small cost , it is worth fitting a dc-dc regulator. I will do that although I’ve not had any issues. However , your post has got me thinking about the other consumers in the Cook especially the over cab control panel and fridge. Is there...

Another bite for the maxxfan in the bathroom of the yellow furniture. The bathroom door only needs to be open a crack so not really an issue. I didn’t understand why a dv to dc converter might be needed though with lifepo4. An explanation would be appreciated. Thanks

I’m also in the UK. The build card for my 2004 JC lists a folding handbrake. However I have never worked out how to use it - maybe I don’t have one after all ! As I have a 5 speed auto it’s not much of an issue as the handbrake is rarely needed. But I would be interested to know how to identify the ...

Greetings from the UK. One of the burners ( nearest sink) has always been temperamental. It needs a match to light and will only stay alight if the turn knob is held in for a longtime. I suspect it is the thermocouple. Does anyone know which particular thermocouple the Cook uses? 2004 with Yellow fu...

Dray, I’ve just sent you a test pm. If it doesn’t arrive, let me know on here. Adrian

My name is on Dray’s list marked in red. But I haven’t received any PM or communication from him. If he reads this could he please get in contact. Thanks. Adrian

Liebe Fans! Ray, my name is in the list marked in red. But I haven’t received any pms from you as you say I should have done?

I have one under the seat as well. I left the Westfalia relay in place and installed a simple 2 way switch. Position 1 has the Westfalia relay isolated and uses the Vitronuc booster. Position 2 isolates the Vitrinic and uses the original relay. That way if anything goes wrong with the Vitronic off g...

Greetings from the U.K. I also would like a set of left and right and am interested in the add on parts. I hope you are ok sending to the U.K. If not, we will find some other way of delivery. Thanks.

The copy Invoice below contains( apart from other Service items) all the part numbers for the 316 Cdi ( OM 612 engine) coolant hoses ( with Eberspacher for the engine coolant) and the intercooler hoses ( except the flexible hose to the air filter). The list may be of use to someone, like me, who dec...

As my wife is often awake for long periods of the night we sleep in the Cook with me in the top bed and Catherine on the downstairs bed. She has a thin memory foam topper enclosed in a zipped sheet. It rolls up in the morning and goes with her duvet and pillows behind the bench seat. It is v comfort...

Thanks.I’ve tried that but can’t get into the site - as you say the server is having issues. Also tried other online parts catalogues but still left tearing my hair out as to which are the correct hoses from multiple parts diagrams!

Greetings from the U.K. I want to change all the coolant, heating and turbo hoses on my Cook - as a precaution now that it is 20 years old. However I can’t locate all the part numbers admit is driving me to drink. My MB dealer has suggested about 6 hoses to change but there are lots more than that-a...

Thank you again for the help. The step came away as you suggested.

Thank you. That’s v helpful.
