    Not sure on correct terminology - the switch that says lights, charger etc is the one that goes

    Hi all, I've had one trip out in my 2007 Bailey Ranger 4 berth caravan. I have a few questions/issues that I need some help with, my apologies if these have been asked before but I don't have much spare time to trawl through other posts finding the answers! 1) Each time I plug the electric...
