Thanks for the advice. I had been thinking about posting a follow up on this because the van has developed a new electrical gremlin: the radio/CD player screen has gone dark. It does come on for a few minutes sometimes and the lights behind the buttons and volume dial flicker, but the controls are unresponsive and the backup camera doesn’t work.

Any ideas?

Thanks. I'll have a look at that.
