Thanks guys, I'll go get it inspected.

Hello all. Had just set off for a trip to Wales and had got but a couple of miles from home on the motorway when a large sign blew off the top of a van in front and hit the front end of the car and the top corner of the caravan, the damage to the car is irrelevant but if you could offer advice...

Righto Gary will do, thanks.

Hi Gary, thanks for your post, I fully intend to give your test sequence a crack and thought that what ever the outcome I would just change every thing if I had gone to the trouble of taking the unit out but with these parts being more pricey than 1st thought that might not be the case :-/...

Thanks Jaydug, at least now I know that they're available but wow that's quite a big diff from the fiver price tag that's been bandied about :-/

Hi. Would someone please point me in the direction of where best to get the two limit stats? Thanks.

Hi Vic. Thanks very much for your input, your take on my description is bang on, much simpler than my long winded effort :-) I'm probably not going to get to the van until the middle of next week to try Gary's sequence of checks but if what you describe is a common problem and a very cheap...

I don't doubt I was turning dials and switches like there was no tomorrow on that first outing :blush: I haven't read anything about an amp control in my van but that's not to say there isn't one there, no reference in my possibly generic owners manual. I will investigate.

No jump in please, always happy to take advice. The first site was an advertised 6 amps and I lost count of the times I scurried out to the post after tripping it before I got the hang of what could be used together with what. I didn't know what the three amperage selectors did then so what...

Hi Gary, We're away again next weekend so will try the no fan test then which hopefully will narrow it down a little (for you :-) ). Last weekend it was a little above freezing overnight and in the mornings and the air from the vents made the van almost comfortable but not quite, it would...

Hello again, Ok so to clarify the heater is the Truma S3002 and is fitted in a 2004 pageant Vendee and I imagine the unit has been in the van from new! On our 1st real outing I am happy to admit I wasn't fully up to speed with 'precisely' how the heater functioned but after having it parked...

Hi Parksy, righto thanks very much, will get to grips with the postings I'm sure.

Just thought, I'm sorry if I have asked this question in the wrong part of the forum? Would someone please move it if so, thanks.

Ok here goes, we picked the van up a few weeks ago and had it outside the house hooked up to the mains for a little while before the first outing, as I was told it hadn't been used for a month or two I left the van on what I though to be a low setting on the thermostat but on the higher amperage...
