  1. We had VPG systems (Bradford company) fitted to some of our fleet at work so we could do split deliveries, pretty accurate and simple install, never had any issues really, seemed reliable.

  4. When i started out as a wee nipper apprentice and i was keen as mustard to get stuck in, i used to be black as aces from every job, and one day i came out from under a wagon from down the pit after doing a clutch and my face was covered and i had a long piece of rag trailing behind me, one of the lads said i looked like a rat that had just crawled out of a bog, and it just stuck, so was called Ratty, Bograt, and as time went on and i got older they upgraded me to Ratman. Bunch of kunks eh!!! ??? so sorry Sam, nothing to exciting about it!

  7. Your transit will probably be on “can” wiring, not 100% sure, other guys on here may be able to advise better. If so it may need programming as like i say LED’s take very little voltage to operate, it could also be that they require some load cells fitting to up the resistance in the circuits so the ecu on your transit can recognise it. I’d get back on to timberwolf and ask some questions at their end regards compatibility then look at your transit next.
  8. What year is your transit? Presumably you’ve towed/tow regular with it, could be a compatibility issue depending on age. LED’s take very low voltage to work, could be picking up off a bad earth/no earth, or the chipper could be wired up wrong. New doesn’t always mean its right.
