henway Posted June 17, 2012 Author Share Posted June 17, 2012 Bonjour as they say here I am lost with Toad and Frog banter but I think there is a lot of skylarking going on here,anyway I thought I would help my fellow motohomers with an ongoing problem with reversed hilarity so when you switch the TV on and you see the end of the program before the start do not blame me as I told you how to solve the problem keep waving :-) :-) :-) Henway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mardee Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 We have a tester which we plug in before we connect to electricity which indicates if there is reverse polarity or no earth so we can sort it before switching on any appliances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
