Hi all, I want to fit a wifi switch to a Hurricane heating system on a friend NB. I have searched everywhere and cant find any info on how the controller switches the unit on. I have look on the back of the controller and it has a phone type plug and lead which I am guessing is not where I need to tap into. Anyone ever done this? Anyone know where and what wire I could tap into if its possible ?. Thanks.

Sorry !! Oxford area but can travel

So I need to replace the drive plate on an Izuzu 35hp fitted with a PRM150D gearbox. Do I need any special tools? anything to watch out for? Best place to get new drive plate?. I am considering getting the seals and clutch in the box replaced at the same time anyone know of a reliable place to get the gearbox done. Thanks

Hi Thanks for that it looks perfect. I am assuming to get a switch 12v output I just need to attach the Normally open to the signal wire of webasto unit so when activated 12v is applied to webasto wire.

Hi, this maybe me being stupid but its says 240vAC and the callsare made at a specified time, is that right.

Hi Do you have the details of the unit please. Thanks Dave

Hi From what I have read that seems to be an issue with router however I would be interested in any other opinions, I have read the early topic as mentioned and i am now more confused, the Nest 3rd generation does not require 240v it will work on 12v DC, also from what I have read the garage door controller relay requires 240v on the relay, I maybe wrong so open to any advise.

Hi All I am considering fitting a 3rd Generation nest Thermostat to my Webasto Thermo Top C. I only want it to turn Unit on when away from boat, has anyone already done this and how do you find it. Anyone use any other wifi to control hot heater units. Thanks Dave

Hi all thanks for all the replies and some very interesting discussions regarding TV licensing and the BBC. I resolved the issue with the Maxi Veiw qube by taking it off its mounting and extending the cable to the other end of the NB away from obstructions, works fine now. Basically it appears regardless of aerial or sat dish if you can't position the thing with an un-obstructed view then its hit and miss if you get a signal or not, I have to say streaming is an option as we do that as well but that can also be reliant on signal strength, airtime provider and location. At a previous marina i had an O2 phone. HS2 started work very close by and the signal to o2 disappeared overnight, after long conversations with o2 tech they admitted that there was nothing they could do and suggested I try a different provider. Thanks Everyone

Hi all, so today I changed water separator on fuel line to webasdo Thermal top C and had an absolute nightmare getting fuel back to pump, water separator would not fill I ended up sucking fuel pipe from tank to get fuel to separator, I did try the bleed valve on bottom but made no difference, eventually got it full of fuel then primed inline pump on webasto and it finally fired up. So question in can i fit a primer with 1 way before water separator to enable me to fill separator and will the be ok the BSC. And advise welcome.

Hi All, so you have probably done this topic to death but, any recommendations for a decent aerial are welcome, currently have a Maxveiw VuCube which is great if you have a un-broken view of the southern sky however if a small tree or wasp is in the southern hemisphere the your fxxxxd. I here that the Moonrakers are good any thoughts is anyone using one? Thanks Dave

Hi If we go all the way to the end of the Oxford Canal in Oxford beyond the locks can we turn around and point where the canal runs out. Thanks

Hi All Fitting new leisure batteries in the next day or two , i have solar panels and an inverter. Is the a sequence i need to follow when disconnecting batteries apart from the obvious disconnecting shore power and switching of battery switch do the solar panels need disconnecting ?. Thanks

Hi All She who must be obeyed wants kitchen window turned into doors , there used to be a guy advertised making them so they fitted straight into the same hole but can't find him now, any advise or ideas welcome.

It would appear So !!!!

Oh ok well we are starting at the Top at the trent and going towards Leicester lol

Hi All We are planning a trip down the river Soar from the Trent all the way down, the services don't look very good ie Taps. Elsan. Overnight moorings. any info would be appreciated.

Hi All Taking a trip on the stourbridge canal Brettell lane Bridge. anyone know how low this bridge is? i have read a few things saying its very tight.

Well that i don't know. I have water dripping from the corner of the opening the hatch covers and it appears to be coming through a weld on the aperture the hatch sits on. So unless i get it off i can't tell . Its being totally repainted in 18 months so maybe i will wait until then as its not a lot of a leak??

Attached to the rivets between the runner and the hatch at two upside down L shaped bits of metal that stop it coming up to high, i can remove them and i then think it will come off backwards my problem is how do i get the brackets back on as i can't get behind them if you see what i mean

The runners do not come off they are welded

Hi All So i need to remove the sliding roof hatch at entrance to boat. I can see two white plastic blocks that are rivette from the side of it and appear to be stops. Do these need to be removed and if so where do i get replacements. Thanks Dave

The reason for the sikaflex is the manufacturers of the neoprene tape state the adhesive used to stick it down is not fully waterproof so as a precaution i thought i would put a small bead around the edge. That is the only reason.

So having read all the advise and watched a lot of videos i am going with Neoprene tape 12mmx3mm and applied to aperture and a small bead of sikalflex around outer edge of window frame applied to the frame before fitting . Does this sound ok everyone ????

So when using the Neoprene did you use any type of sealant or just the tape .
