Thanks Raywood, I agree, I swore I wouldn't buy another without an inspection but against my better judgement, she who must be obeyed really didn't want to miss out on this one. Fortunately, in this instance we got lucky.

Hi, we have a trumatic space heater in our van which works on gas but gives no heat on electric. The green light is on the control panel and I can hear the relay click when I turn to a power setting. I've just taken the back off in the wardrobe and there's a loose wire - should this be plugged...
