Thanks Ian. That was exactly what I initially thought. First thing I did after unhitching was to jack up the caravan and check the brakes on the caravan. The wheels spun freely, no problem! I'm going to do checks on the hoses on the FL to make sure they've not perished and other checks suggested...

Hi! Thank you for the suggestion. It will be on the list of things to check and hopefully I'll be able to resolve it without too much hassle or expense. It's all a learning curve tight!

Thank you Nodge. One wheel up test already done, tyres are identical size, make, inflated. I'll have a look at the hoses later today and take it from the there.
Thank you for all your help, it very much appreciated.

Thank you Hippo! I'll check the hoses tomorrow, check pressures and any obvious damage. I'll try to keep my sausage fingers out of the way. Got a few spare if all goes wrong o_O

Thank J for your reply. I can do some basic stuff myself with advice and I've got a fantastic old school garage that does all the work on my car's for me so hopefully it won't be a black hole for me to throw my money down. That's what the kids are for!:p

Bench seats and dining table at the front converts to a double bed. Little kichen on the right, bench seat that lifts into 2 bunks on the left with toilet at the back. It does need lots of tlc but I bought it as a project for me to do up over the winter. I do love messing about fixing things. Do...
