Two points on limiting brake pad/rotor wear: 1) My experience is as a ship driver...spent 31 years in the Navy "driving" destroyers, patrol gunboats, and aircraft carriers, none of which had brakes.

Bob, I do not think I am a "heavy breaker," nor is my wife (who sometimes drives the EVC) but how in the heck did you get 73K+ out of one set of Eurovan brakes?! My 2000 had one disk/pad

If the wipers and headlights also go out when the audible alarm comes on, it might be the ignition switch-this is what happened to my van- Judy 02 WK

for what its worth, if you never want to see that light again or hear the sound, you can take the wiring from your old pads that are severed and use a wire connector to put them together. that

There is no easy way to do this. Those of us who have changed the brake pads several times have made a connector using the old one off the brake pods so that the two wires are connected together.

It could be that even though your pads are good, there sometimes is a fault in the detector wire built into the pads. I have seen this come up on the list a few times (has not happened to me.) Some

I have a '02 EVC with 50k miles on it. Last week a warning light came on indicating that the brake pads needed replacement. My friendly Les Schwab dealer pulled the tires and found that the pads

I'll try replacing the sensor and purging the cooling system of air. After the replacement, I'll let you know if my overheating problem is solved. Thanks for your input

Forest - In my EVC the lead from the combiner relay to the front bat is ~18" long, with a 30A auto reset breaker in the lead, which is why I didn't use a fuse in my short jumper. There is also a 40A

What year? On my 2002 GLS, I take off the end cap and tighten with a hex/allen bit - all done! from my to fix?

I don't know about Seattle but I do know that I work on the VW MV in Olympia area. As far as Seattle is concerned, I,myself, would trust Chris at Fine Tuning off of Aurora as long as he says he will

Fifty thousand miles is about the right time to need new pads, particularly in the heavier EVC. The front and the rear pads are sized to wear out about the same time. While the front pads are

Er, this was supposed to be posted on its own, as a new thread... sorry - And YOUR favorite Seattle area EVC mechanic shop is....??? Thanks for your help... Land ('97 Winnebago EVC )

A fuse is a good idea. I'm not making it for charging while sitting--more as a emergency jumper. I use a marine battery in the coach and keep an eye on the charge--and don't use much power when

That's always debatable, but I try not to blow things up with my experiments! Just a 12 gauge wire is fine. I leave it on all winter. It doesn't heat up when I start the engine because it starts

Sorry, it's a 2003 EV MV. Thanks, Bryan

EVC or not? There is a cast metal lug on the EVC front seats with a steel tab that is supposed to position the arm. The steel part is held on by swedging the cast metal and it often breaks. I fixed

Stuart- Sounds like you know what your doing. What size wire do you use for your jumper--I'm going to make one up this week- Forest

Winnebago was probably suppose to replace the VW sticker with the updated one. Maybe they did and someone just pulled it off leaving the original one from VW. My 2002 EVC has the same sticker on the
