    Find the ECU on Mr Van, trace wires, there is no way you can have a crank sensor, throttle position sensor and the Cold start/Heater plug circuit all go wrong at the same time. Either you have had water in the ECU or the wiring plugs/harness need looking at (most likely cause) I expect the ECU now has all sorts of fault codes stored in it that now need clearing, have you got an ODB reader?Use this to read the codes and clear them. Hopefully this will reset the cold start light or at least tell you what is going on.

    Will you are a legend mate . helping this fella getting his bike home 👍👍👍👍 As a biker for many years there is nothing worse than braking down without any mans to get it back home. I have seen bikes striped when they were left at the side of the road by people after they had broken down... I noticed that you attempted to find the fault for him.. sadly when people mess with the wiring . You can spend days trying to find the fault. The very same thing can be said about cars and any other vehicles.. My pet hate was always trying to find a electrical problem on a boat were people have added something to the electrical system without having a clue about what they are doing.??? The most dangerous electrical fault I ever came across was a power supply that was actually burning behind the ceiling boards...you could actually see the smoke escaping from around the ceiling...all the owner said that he could smell something burning..????. He hadn't even turned off the power supply on the boat.??? And they sit and wonder why this has happened... Anyway Wii as always you have produced another brilliant video ..

    Nothing like a nice bit of splicing and dicing to get the heart going in the morning 😂 at least you’ve had the good weather for it , tip old timber yards , the have off cuts of hard wood you can get for cheap or sometimes free,👍🇬🇧👍🇬🇧👍

      I went to b and q in the end. I don't know many timber yards in this area..It's pretty remote to be honest.

    You are so ingenious Will, love listening to your thoughts on problem solving! Carter and Lottie are so adorable, very special for them to have their Grandad near by to spoil them 😊

    Heysham beach is lovely it’s such a small beach that hardly anyone goes to, with a lil church yard and lay out stones just above the little village. Such a cute lil village 🤗

    Hi Will. Looks like you enjoyed your time at Glasson. Is it a silver propeller location? Probably should be. That early morning shot across the basin towards the moored yachts with the reflection was superb. So quiet and still with birds in background. Did you see any vessel go out or come in via the tidal basin? Any news on being to leave the Lancaster canal as yet? Regards. Paul.

    • @NarrowboatWill
      @NarrowboatWill Před 3 dny

      When I opened the door it was like a mirror. Amazing sight Paul. Great place to moor up.

  • @julieblackstock8650

    I don't know if there is a marina there but seems like you have found somewhere you could be happy to stay for extended period. Luv-Ley

    • @NarrowboatWill
      @NarrowboatWill Před 3 dny

      I did stay for nearly two weeks. I loved it, but the locks keep closing so you could be stuck down there for months. Thanks Julie. 👍

    • @NarrowboatWill
      @NarrowboatWill Před 3 dny

      Hello Robert. 👍 I don't think another boat like that exists. It must be the same boat. Take care. 👍

    Great believer in what goes round, comes round. You should have a lot of good karma in your life Will. Has the warning light gone off on Mr van.

    • @NarrowboatWill
      @NarrowboatWill Před 3 dny

      That's what I believe. My warning light is still on, but my van drives ok. I'm getting it plugged in this week.. Thanks for asking.

    Hi Will. Thanks for another GR8 video. Also it was GR8 to meet you by the canal on Saturday giving you a filthy thumbs up lol. When I said I was a subscriber, I was mistaken, but I am now. BTW across from Glasson on Sunderland point is Sambo's grave. Google that you might want to visit. Look forward to your next video mate. Take care 👍👍👍

    • @NarrowboatWill
      @NarrowboatWill Před 4 dny
