It works with another charger that's 12v so it isn't the pack's charger point that's faulty, just the adapter.

It's still working the lights and the compressor. How will I know if it has crystallized ?

I bought one of those Aldi Power packs for the security of being able to start a flat battery. My Peugeot 106 has some kind of fault that drains the battery and is intermittent. What happens is sometimes when you take out the ignition keys, the fan or other electrical device will carry on...

I have one of those power packs that has jump leads attached. For some reason the 15 v adapter that charges the unit doesn't work. I have plugged in another switchable voltage adapter that has a maximum of 12 v output. It seems to be working as the charging light is on the power pack. Will this...

Got really good pair of long nosed pliers with good grip and they can't shift the beggar. Why do they make the screws so soft ? it's ridiculous. I will try and cut a grove in the to of the screw and get a flat screwdriver in it.

Surely if I get hold of some long nosed pliers and get the screw out I can get a replacement bleed screw? New radiator seems a bit of a jump.

The key that unlocks my radiator valve for bleeding airlocks no longer grips. It just turns around not moving the screw. It's not the key as it works on other radiators. I have tried gripping the larger nutt that houses the screw but it's stuck fast and well painted over. Is there anything...

The bleed screw in my radiator doesn't turn when I engage the key. The main nut is sealed from years of painting so I cannot get to that either. Is there a special tool that can get the screw out so I can replace it ?

What about antifreeze to treat the wood rot and then Milliput expoy putty ? Failing that, a new piece of wood.

The bottom of the outer door is worse than I initialy thought. The inside is solid wood, its the outer tongue and groove layer that is suffering at the bottom. I have bought some putty to fill it before I paint. It has linseed oil in so should help preserve. It may not be the right way to do...

I have a solid wood back door which is very good but on the outside at the bottom there is a small hole where the wood has rotted. I am going to paint it with undercoat and a weather shield gloss again but what advice would anyone give to treating and filing the rotten area before painting ...

After having got through 2 single lever mixer taps in the space of about a year for my kitchen because water (both taps) after a few months began to pour out from underneath the actual lever when switched off. I have decided to make sure I get a decent one without paying silly money. The...

I have We Blocker and cannot uninstall. It doesn't even block anything like it should. If I log into to my controls it asks for my master password which it accepts. When I try to uninstall it asks for it but won't accept it even though its the same password. Can anyone help me git rid of this ?

By the way, would that also mean you would have to supply your own tea ?

Alright alright you've had your fun. :wink: :roll:
