So I dig into the Warranty File, lo and behold the P3 has a 5 yr warranty guess who still has 6 mths to go, email despatched to see how we go....
UPDATE 1430: Well I discovered my multi meter has a malfunction, mate came around to get something checked, mine was not right so used his, then got this niggly feeling so went over everything on the van and tug about the brakes, Van OK, Jeep was showing the blue lead as good but this time I checked both sides of the connection plug on P3, good one side, bad the other, fiddly job to dismantle but a bit of gentle crimping and everything is working well again....... Victory, saved $280 and discovered I need a new meter, so the inch that a didn't check was the problem, Murphys law again... oh well get to hear what that want for a warranty claim now..................
