I put the new pump in and no problem now. I think its bad form of Alde to put in a light use motor into a system that they say is the best for all year use. So it looks like a new pump every two years then at just under £100 a shot a tad expensive i think. Pete

Thanks guys, I have had a look inside the holding tank and it was clear. I placed some foam behind the tank and retightened the three screws that hold the tank onto the wall (two of them were not screwed to the wall) and this has made a remarkable diffence to the sound. I have bitten the bullet...

Lately the Alde circulation pump on my Buccaneer Clipper is getting louder (rumbling sound) and sometimes it sticks. A new one is going to cost between £85 to £105. Is there anyway that this could be fixed? There seems no way to get into the motor. Could it be that the bearings are on the way...

The problem was with the rubbishy switch that Elddis put in the van. On taking out the switch it was found that the fuse section had been glued on with a hot glue gun. The switch had started to melt. Protential fire hazzard. I have had this van from new 2011. The engineer said that the switches...

Thanks martin, I think I will. I believe the post should have read ALDE and not a supermarket name....ahem.......Peter

I wonder if anyone has had the same problem as me. In the last two days i`ve had two 240v 10 amp aldi glass fuses blow in the 240v heating switch. I`m a bit worried because the fuse holder is now warped with the heat. Any ideas? Regards Peter. PS. the heater is a 2000KW type.

Hi, I work for the C.C. and we dont mind pickups & vans on site, the only ones that will not be allowed on site are outfits bearing advertising matter on them. They will be asked to park in the carpark & not on the pitch. (vehicles that is).

Yes, maybe some thin rubber. Did`nt get a repy from Thetford.

Just had another go and successfully gained access. Just retightened the two crosshead screws. Thanks again Graham.

Thanks Graham, I have tried to get into the back cover but it dos`nt seem to want to come off. I`m frightened of breaking it. I`ve emailed Thetford and i`m awaiting a reply. (not holding breath)

Forgot to say that its a Thetford C250CWE. Pete

Hi folks, the toilet seat on my thetford (porcelain) toilet has come loose. Cant find a way into it to tighten the seat. Any ideas. Pete

Many thanks for the advice.

Is it possible to have the hot water off and the heating on in my 2011 Buccanneer clipper. ( I don`t want any water on in the van only the heating) Can`t find anything in the handbook. Many thanks in advance, Pete

Many thanks for the quick replies. I`ll try some velcro then. Pete
