People are programmed robot slaves of the system thinking happyness starts with extern factors like status, money, material things that means nothing and its relativ and an illusion create by society. If your happyness depend on extern factors you will never be happy because extern factors are endless. Happyness starts inside you. The more people around you, the more expectations, talk about others, lying, frustrations, negativity, jealousy, hate, double standards, own benefits, judge, comparing etc..... reflection of their broken souls. Alone or in solitude you have more strength, peace, power, happyness, freedom and time to reflect and work on yourself and enjoy the simple things in life. Be the light in your own life. No, not feeling superior or better then others but more be carefully and aware. Blessed to you both and your beautiful journey

We’ve had that kind of warning coming up on our van for years, always randomly. It doesn’t seem to mean anything, because every time we take it to the garage, they tell us there’s nothing wrong and nothing they can do. Electronics in vehicles is just a nightmare!

Could be a abs sensor. Had the same randomly coming on my car. It could be to do with you having the wheels off and the handbrake problem. If it comes on again it will be an easy fix so don't worry.

Hola ! you lovely people. What a brilliant first proper vlog out and about in the new van. Just loved it 🥰. It's great to see you back on the road and it is bring back so many enjoyable memories of my own fabulous 6 years of wonderful travels through France and Spain, with my darling man .... before I lost him to cancer 😢. Oh how I miss him and that unique life. But you guys do a great job of keeping a big smile on my face, just watching and enjoying your easy vlogs. I hope you both continue collecting more wonderful journeys that let me indulge in my own happy thoughts. Wishing you much joy, hugs to you both - and to the doggies, stay safe, take care and look after each other. Looking forward to next Thursday already 😀🤗 ❤ xx

I always watch your channel but not commented before. I might be completely off on a tangent but I have had similar warning lights on my vw campervan which disabled ABS and other functions. This was the result of a broken sensor (each wheel has one). It was intermittent at first but then appeared every time. Not sure if that helps. Keep up the great videos 👍

ESP error. Check the wheel sensors it may be due to one of the sensor wires being rubbed through. This can happen if the brakes were worked on and on of the wheel sensor wires was disturbed making it com in contact with the rim or disc. You can if there is enough lenght rejoin and solder the broken wire or add a short wire lo lenghten and solder it. If that is what is wrong. I should have waited to see the rest of the video. Loose sensor connection.

Great to see you out and about again. The van looks fab, and Nick just needs to have a day or two to adjust back to the different pace and environment. You've had a lot of pressure, things out of your control, and it will take a day or two to adjust. Soak up the excitement and fun and chase the gremlins away with a positive mind set (and a few relaxing drinks, as necessary). Take care 👋🇬🇧🇪🇺🇺🇦

Hi Nick, sometimes you can reset a fault light by disconnecting the battery for some 5 mins then reconnecting and then start the engine. I have used this trick several times over the past few years. Good luck in the future.

We've been van lifers since 1998, well before the term was coined. Before that we were weekend campervanners. We don't live our whole life in our van (much the same as you) but we still spend more time in the van than we spend in our Spanish apartment. We've had some (many) hiccoughs or even hiccups, through the years but you get through them and go onto the next stage of life. We're presently, very comfortable, in Galicia. Beautiful sunny weather, with beautiful 22° temperatures. We learnt something, eventually 🤣🤣🤣

Hi guys, great to see you again, I've got alot of catching up to do, because I was taken ill in Austria, where I was in hospital 8 weeks, with kidney failure. Quite a scary thing, when you travel solo. But I'm home now and slowly improving. I've got to spend time now going back and watching all your episodes I've missed. Those sensors are so delicate, a bent wire, a bit of dirt etc can be a right pain. Great to see you on the road again. Cheers guys 👍🐸

A lot of vans have “warning light” issues. Take the van to your garage, your mechanic will connect a diagnostic device to the”On board diagnostic “ port located in the fuse box and he will tell you what the issue is. Normally just requires a rest. You can get a diagnostic unit to tell you what the problem is to fix it yourself good luck safe travels 👍🚐👍

Hi there…just a thought re: your multiple warning lights…that sort of thing can happen when your cab battery is low on charge or on it’s way out.

Good to see you all back on the road....at last! 👏 May I suggest you buy yourself a fault code reader now you have a modern van.... it will save all the guessing and stress of not knowing what's wrong.👍 Also, I can't remember which engine your van has, but if it has a timing belt, and it hasn't been changed recently, I strongly advise that you have it changed before venturing north....they need changing every 5 years. Looking forward to more travelling videos....and I bet you all are as well! 😉👍

Velton is looking great. Katy wants me to paint her wheels like Velton's. As for the warning lights, I bet you never had tha ESR light and Hill Start Assist lights come on on Vinnie! My first thoughts with regards to that problem was an open circuit on a wheel sensor. So hopefully your loose connection was the source of the problem. Now you can enjoy some adventures in Velton. I'm looking forward to "coming along with you".

So put the little metal thing inside they can't do so. And backdoor we have extra lock from inside. Steering lock. It is just to make it more problem for them so they take easier car. We go north Scandinavia in Aug. Winter it get axarqia. Happy trip to you all.

Had this and it ended up being a wheel sensor, different vehicle mind you but the same number and type of warnings. Wheel sensors apparently are part of lots of different onboard systems! Second time it happened it tuned out to be wheel bearing which was randomly affecting wheel sensor readings. Very intermittent Good luck!!

Hi Nick and Sara, it's really nice to see you out getting some sun! I wanted to mention that I thought maybe the warning light had something to do with driving on the dusty road into the car spot? I wonder if it would have happened on bitumen. The warning light also has to do with traction control. Not sure if this is correct but I wonder if it might be worth considering. All the best. Enjoy the rest of your trip. Love from Australia.

Hi Guy's... our little car that we tow behind us (A fiat 500 we call Daisy), her 'Hill Holder' warning light comes on and then off all the time. We do not worry about it just talk to her nicely and it goes off. We don't think that it is much of a problem. ¡Tecnología! 🤪

I have a Citroen C1, which is a dream to drive. One nigt I was travelling to our local town and all these dashboard lights came on. The car was running OK. Friends followed me home, and all was well. The lights were intermittent. I tookit to my local garage and he was stumped. In the end he told me to take it to an auto electrician, who found a loose earth. Some months previously, my garage had put a new clutch in, and I still wonder if something hadn`t been connected properly. Hope you get sorted, very distracting driving with lights dancing in your vision.

Don't be so hard on yourselves sliding back into traveling. Take your time & enjoy your hard work on Velton. Your subs are still with you. Of the 9 (yikes, that many?) "van life" you tubers I follow, Expawers are the ONLY ones still traveling. All others have bought a house/land (or more than one!) & are no longer van traveling.

Hi Guys really great to see you back on the road. I have a Peugeot van I’ve had a warning light that comes on intermittently and has done for over 2 yrs the garage couldn’t find fault. As luck by as it drives ok and doesn’t go into limp mode, don’t worry about it! Have a fab time xx

All that hard work finally paying off! Ignore the warning light, it can only be something very minor and shouldn’t be a problem. Get it checked out if it makes you feel better when you get home, but in the meantime enjoy Velton, try to relax and have fun! Maybe a week off without filming is what you really need, but I bet you don’t do it. We would miss you but I think you need a break and an actual holiday without having to constantly think how to entertain us! Most of all have a great time! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Electrics in vehicles. Mostly simple glitches Simple solution just disconnect the battery for seven seconds and bingo it rests itself result. Most commercial trucks nowadays have a isolation switch fitted so battery can be disconnected very easy sollte for this reason Try it Guys I m so glad for you now your back to van life Go enjoy and keep these vlogs coming we love em.
