Van power fault forces unplanned 600km detour. What's the problem?
Our Redarc RedVision power control system locks up and the lights and pumps go out on our our World's worst short cut trip home. We have to head toward Albany which is a 600km diversion to see if we can get it fixed. Check out this @n@nextlevelozpisode to see what happened and if we get it fixed to head toward home. After a planned stop to get our car serviced by the terrific Wyatts automotive, we head toward Wave Rock to then drive slowly across the Nullarbor and further, picking up a few sights and stops along the way. We hit a snag with an electrical fault in our Redarc system that we can't fix and the help desk can't help either. We take a 600km diversion for technical assistance from the fabulous Hayden and Mikaela at Albany Autolec. Follow along to see what happened, if it got fixed and what we did in Albany to make the most of our unscheduled visit. While we were in Albany we visit one of Australia's gems and that reminds us that these glitches and diversions in van travel aren't really problems. Join us as we cross from east to west then back again on some of Australia's most iconic outback tracks and roads in our off road rig - with a few of our mates. We're David and Paula and like many people we've worked hard for 40 years. So we took a gap year from work and did a Big Lap of Australia, which changed our life and outlook. Join us as we work out the balance and the next chapters of our future and travel and options. How much more big travel in our van and how many other bucket list items can we fit in? We don't know but we will find out. We're happy to share our experiences, what goes right, what goes wrong, tips, hacks, mods and the stunning places around our great country. We aren't influencers or professional content creators, we don't have sponsors and 100% of our YouTube ad revenue goes to charity. So please like, subscribe, share and add your comments because it all helps us send some more money to Legacy and RFDS. We'd love your comments, questions and tips. We hope you will like and subscribe and we look forward to sharing our adventures around this magnificent country and from time to time around the world. #lapofaustralia #vanlife #caravanaustralia #newdefender #zonerv #redarc Chapters: 00:00 Intro 01:40 South for Defender Service 02:20 Northampton 03:14 Van gets a tub 04:01 Best Land Rover Service Dealership 04:34 Great but wet free camp 07:38 Surprise find at Dumbleyung 08:11 We have a problem and detour 13:07 Anzac Centre (while the van is fixed) 13:09 Desert Mounted Corps Memorial 14:13 These aren’t problems 17:10 Beautiful Scenic views of harbour 20:54 We really are lucky! 22:38 Earl of Spencer Pub 22:59 Van problem and fix , thanks Albany Autolex 24:44 What’s Ned’s Corner 22:59 What’s next? and some trip reactions
