Donner Und Blitzen

Thunderbolt and lightning, very, very frightening.

Strange how lightning has no e in it, whereas frightening does.

Anyway, that's the situation here as I write; however, whereas the three, domesticated house cats are cowering from the thunder, to varying degrees, Railway, the feral cat, doesn't give a monkey's and is quite happily sitting on our patio, under the awning, eating his breakfast and showing not the least concern for the thunder and lightning raging around him. 

All this extreme weather seems to be a warning of the effects of climate change yet, when you think of it, we've never lived in a more sanitised milieu. The griminess that was there for all to see in the 50s and 60s has disappeared and everything looks pristine - yet it isn't, as far as the atmosphere is concerned. It's all hidden from view and thus capable of being ignored.

I'm currently struggling to find the cause of the fridge in the motorhome not working on 12v. Works fine on 240v and gas, but nothing on 12v. All other 12v equipment seems to be working fine, with the exception of the fridge. Strangely enough, the board where you switch from leisure to cab battery shows no current on cab battery, despite there being 12v current in many other places in the loop.

I've replaced as many fuses and relays as I can find, but still not a sausage from the volt meter on the display board or the fridge itself. The display shows full power when switched to leisure battery, but zilch when switched to cab.
