Ford Transit Recovery Plean – Intermittent Electrical Fault Transported to Main Dealer in Falkirk
Falkirk Recovery was recently called to carry out a Ford Transit recovery in Plean after the van developed an unusual intermittent fault that appeared whenever the vehicle was exposed to wet weather.
The Transit would repeatedly cut out when it got wet in the rain and could then become difficult to restart. With the cause of the problem unknown and the fault continuing to return, the customer decided the safest option was to have the van professionally recovered to a Ford main dealer in Falkirk for specialist diagnosis.

Ford Transit Recovery in Plean
The customer had been experiencing a frustrating problem with their Ford Transit. During wet weather, the van would begin cutting out and struggling to restart.
Intermittent faults like this can be particularly difficult to diagnose because the vehicle may operate normally at other times. Rather than risk the Transit cutting out again while being driven, the customer arranged Ford Transit recovery from Plean to Falkirk.
We attended the vehicle in Plean and prepared it for transport on our 7.5-tonne tilt-and-slide recovery truck.
Once safely loaded, the Transit was secured using professional wheel restraints before being transported directly to the customer's chosen Ford main dealer in Falkirk.
Cutting Out When Wet – Why Main Dealer Diagnosis Was Needed
A vehicle that develops problems specifically during wet weather can potentially have an electrical or electronic issue, but without proper diagnostic testing it isn't possible to say exactly what was causing this Transit to cut out.
Possible areas a garage may investigate include electrical connections, wiring, sensors, water ingress or other components affected by moisture.
Because the problem was intermittent and the Transit was becoming difficult to restart, transporting it rather than continuing to drive removed the risk of the van breaking down again on the journey to the dealer.
The Ford main dealer could then carry out the appropriate diagnostic testing to identify and rectify the underlying problem.
