What have you done to your Elgrand today?

[Highway Dave]

Now I have only one kidney, no wife, the dogs have left me and I am sleeping in the Elgrand.
Life is hunky doorey.

Yeh life is shit sometimes mate
But you will have Bahn Brechan spoiler

 

[dognero]

I will have to research on what to stick it on with as I don't want the "twonks" nicking it.

i did look at that but i would be buried with it sticking out both ends if my mrs found out HOW MUCH!!!!!!!

 

[LeStempy]

I think I would look at drilling from below and screwing it down.

Not sure if the same, but my bonnet spoiler has two slots in the bottom, which has metal clips that clamp it to the back edge of the bonnet underside. Then 3m tape all along the front edge.

Aye but its all worth it in the grand scale of things

 

[Elgrandonaut]

This morning on my frost covered windscreen, there was a small patch where the ice had melted.
There must be something using power when the vehicle is not in use and locked, as this is the third time I've seen this,(once on our Kia), it is near to the auto light sensor on both our vehicles.

 

[LeStempy]

Could it be reflection/refraction of light from the light sensor?

 

[David1972]

or a chip in the windscreen?

 

[LeStempy]

Or a batter scrap...

 

[Elgrandonaut]

Nope x3 ,light can't refract off the sensor, it was at 06:00 this morning and like the other two times early morning and dark, no chips on the screen or batter

 

[Shep50]

I'm not going to bother.
Chromecast to the RCA and I've pretty much got everything I'm likely to ever need.

Sorry for the novice question mate but how does this set up work please Steve

My set up details are here:-
Thread 'It can be done!' https://forum.elgrandoc.uk/threads/it-can-be-done.8587/
But not very clear I'm afraid.
Sorry.
But there are some right clever chaps on here that have done it, understand it and have written about it on here........ somewhere!
The search button should lead to to it though.
Good luck looking.

Thoroughly clean that area and see if it happens again.

Hi Shep,
You'll need these items to send 'cast' from your mobile or tablet, to your Elgrand screen:

1 A Google Chromecast,

2 An HDMI to RCA converter (switch set to NTSC) and about 3-4m of RCA cables (Yellow/Red/White) and

3 A 12v Cigar Lighter to twin USB power adapter,

You'll also ideally have the rear connectors for RCA or need to get the adapter cable to plug into the rear mounted analogue TV Tuner,

The Miracasting 'button' is circled on my mobile You Tube screenshot below,
