🔧 Key Points:
• Step-by-step tank replacement process
• Tips for making the job easier
• Cost

It would be a shame if they stop campers, it does not help that there was a person in a van who stayed there for 3 months and refused to move at that time they were going to shut the place all together.

    Thank you for the what3words and the great video. We will hopefully be visiting Dunkirk in August on our travels in our half built Citroen Relay 😅. My great grandad was there in 1940 and got blown out of 3 boats before he finally got back brilliant cheers

    Good explanation and video...but looks quite cheap and flimsy for the price, not that that's your doing.

      Hi ballynoes, thank you for watching and posting your comment. To be fair it's fairly solid once in place, you will get twisting when its not fixed in place, however i feel its not really any different to the original part which it aligns too. Are you looking to use these or are you going to make something instead?

    so weird seeing a vlog in your own climbing gym, if I still studied there I would've probably bouldered that day lol

    Thanks for this video. In terms of 'seat base' is it the drivers side seat base the same as the passengers? are they interchangeable?

      Hi justanothertape, thanks for watching and posting your question. Yes the base is the same for both driver and passenger.

    At 0:28 you say open the fan itself, but for me all these opens (manual, remote or buttons) won't open the fan. So I can't get under it to unscrew it. Do you have any advice perhaps?

    • @Alivefrom45
      @Alivefrom45 Před 3 měsíci

      Hi Dn140890, thank you for watching and posting your question. The challenge you are going to have is, if the gearbox is is broken then the teeth could be jammed, hence it will not open. It is unlikely that you are going to be able to remove the screws to open the top while it is in the closed position. Your safest option might be to remove the whole fan from the base or at least remove the screw to enable you to gain access to the screw in the top. One good thing about the Maxxair fans is that removing the fan does not break with weatherproof seal you make when you install them. Hope this helps, please let us know how you get on.

      It took us a week but we managed to fix it. Both the lift motor and the circuit board were broken and had to be replaced. First I had to disconnect the two arms from the inside of the fan (you do that around 1:03 in the video but from the outside) and then I could get all parts apart. Thanks for your help!

    • @Alivefrom45

      Hi Dn140890, glad I was able to help. I suspect the board burnt out due to the motor being jammed by the gearbox. if you have any question around any of our other video, please feel free to comment and ask.

      @@lvrncccNice, I must admit it looks like an amazing climbing center, we will have to check it out when we are able to get down to that area of Germany, thank you for the recommendation. Feel free to check out our other climbing center videos we have from northern Europe and the UK.
