Should you not have wiped the LDF off from inside the ECV before connecting back up? Also arguably changed the washer once it’s been undone

[@MHKBuildingSolutions]

It's a good point that as a good working practice I could've wiped the LDF although such a minute amount doesn't cause any problems.
Washers do not have to be changed if in good condition which this one was.

Non contact voltage detector. Proceeds to touch the meter and regulator with it lol

[@MHKBuildingSolutions]

@@jayc1140 it non contact to actual electrical terminal to test electrics lol doesn't mean you just wave it around:)

[@jayc1140]
