Hello All, I have noticed that when I press the brake peddle the hevac display dims a little. This is when I am stationary I have noticed it. I take this is a negative problem but where are the likely negative points on the vehicle aprt from the obvious battery one, or is it something else. Thanks
 
Mine have done this for ages.

I assume it's a bad earth somewhere, but I've not been able to fix it and have got bored trying to mend it now!

Check out Rave, ground circuit diagram, it's all on there:D

I have to admit, I have a few problems with the motor which I just need to get round to do them, but at the mo lack the energy to carry them out.

I will have a look but not a very good reader. One thing I have noticed is the battery looks smaller than what should be there going by the hole it sits in. Also it is 74ah which seems a bit on the low side to me.

Yep, get shut or you have problems especially when the weather gets cold (next week). Datatec gave a link for Battery superstore (I think) for the biggest battery that will fit, do a search. I bought one and haven't had a problem with it

Battery megastore, Alphaline 1000CCA 135AH, it's the biggest that will fit.:)
