Jurgens XT 75 Trailer
Posted: 16 Dec 2015 22:36
I've been contemplating buying myself a trailer for some time now - (what with SWAMBO & mini SWAMBO's amazing ability to out do themselves with transporting the entire household on every trip we do!) So I popped over the road to our local Campworld / Loftus Caravan City to try and pick up a 2nd hand deal. Well, naturally nothing was available apart from the selection of new Jurgens models ie. XT 65; XT 75; XT 120 & XT 140.
Well after much deliberation, I decided to take an XT 75 - the 120 is really nice, but maybe a little expensive for the kind of usage that we will make with it. I will probably fit a tent at some stage but no more than that as I want a storage box more than a full on camp kitchen. When we connected the plug however, the left indicator and brake lights didn't work so I assumed that my plug might be at fault, so I have just checked with a multimeter and everything checks out according to the wiring diagram. Is it possible that the trailer has been incorrectly wired??
I did clean out the plug, and sprayed Q20 on the contacts - will check it out again tomorrow when I collect the trailer, hopefully it all works because we leave at sparrows on Friday for a game farm just south of Messina and will be fully loaded!!
