Hi Brett, Mine did same while I was wiring a few things. I had touched the bcm module. It would self lock after 5 or 10 mins. More details in my thread https://www.navaraforum.com/threads/electrical-gremlins.39182/ I unplugged the each plug, reseated and made sure each wire was pushed in...

Hi Everyone, Posting this one in case anyone ever encounters. The past week have taken pretty much most of the dash out of the NAV, to install a TowPro and whilst at it I've redone all my wiring, switches and anything I've ever installed myself . It's come up a treat! All wiring is labelled...

Looking at Easter next year. Keen to get up there for a good 10 to 14 days. Explore bit of the West side of the island as well. Been watching the content of a few You Tubers, magnificent to say the least!

Thanks Tony. I've booked into wholesale automatics for a trans check+service and a cooler to be fitted. Electric brake wise, I went for red arc tow pro, it's sitting on my desk need to fit it now the weather is getting better. Was thinking about running a lead down as well to charge things in...

Evening everyone, I've just bought my first campervan, delivery Jan next year. Curious on what ppl have done to their Nav's to prepare. I've got a 2008 D40 2.5 auto and it's just clocked over 200K. I'm about to fit redarc towpro and run a 50A Anderson plug to my towbar. Thoughts on...

Thanks Bods & Tony, yup had checked fuses. Pulled them all out and re-introduced one a time. Then found Nissan manual, and followed alternator troubleshooting section which pointed to a wiring loom issue.

All fixed. The solution, not totally sure! Had traced wring loom back to cluster switch in fuse box. Tested and both wires all ok. Cleaned earths, the earth to chassis and motor near battery were fine. The earth near alternator looked fine as well, maybe little dusty, gave it a clean with a...

Thanks Jonney, tried that too! I've diagnosed (I think) to wiring loom. Found nissan manuals to diagnose overcharge and it points to the two wire alternator connector, following their steps. There next advcie is repair wiring loom lol. Trouble is it merges into one massive loom then hard to...

Thanks Tony. Not great at auto electrics but will try my way through! Have progressed a little. I put my old alternator back in. It hadn't totally died before I took it out. went for a quick drive. Once it spun up and started charging, 15.5V as well, so its not the new alt's I bought of...

Hi Everyone, Has anyone come across an alternator overcharging issue before? 2007 D40 Outlaw. Old alternator died, replaced with one from Ebay, worked fine for 3 weeks, then battery light came on, multi-meter shows 15.5V. Notified the Ebay store, great customer service, sent me a new one...

Bump on an old thread, wanting to do the same next weekend. Any pics or update benchrisfennell ? How'd it all turn out?

Thanks guys. Id like to put solar on canopy roof permanently, but parking at train station is a worry. Give it max a month before someone takes off with it! Will try out as above and post results in a while. Thanks as always for your wisdom! Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Hi Guys, I've been reading a lot of the dual battery threads on here for my 4WD only - no van. There's some great advice on setups and have settled on dual battery system with a Fullriver 105AH in tray, CTEK D250S and a solar panel. Can't fault the CTEK, the smarts of charging starter battery...

All sorted, turned out to be the fan belt tensioner a front of alt. Took off the belt and turned by hand, you could feel the grind. Just picked up a new one here http://www.precisionintl.com/Part.aspx?ID=71277&EID=2533322 and will fit on weekend.

longy, definately from alternator now. Got a few people round and we started/stopped many times, traced to vibrations at back of alt. Iceman, noise is getting worse, its like a bearing running dry or something similar. clawrence, yes i think its alt related. Have taken it to a few different...
