We recently bought a Knaus caravan and the front rubber window rims are very sticky and I can’t clean it off. I tried ringing a Knaus dealer for advice, but he was quite offhand and said it’s been left with the blinds down by the previous owner and affected by the heat. I wondered if anyone else...

Thank you for your help. It does look new. I did buy privately but rang a dealer for advice about the warranty. I am sorry you got dragged in due to the confusion, it was confusing. I didn’t realise you had to read the entire thread prior to posting either, it’s definitely put me off this forum.

Ok thank you. Interesting, the Knaus dealer must’ve been lying, he said it would only be under warranty if it had been serviced by them!

Thank you. I’m not sure if it’s been correctly serviced. It’s a Knaus and came from the Isle of Wight where there is no Knaus dealer to complete the service.

That’s very useful, thank you. I didn’t realise buses were also made of fibreglass! I was worried if we did it ourself, it might look like a home job and put someone off buying it in the future. We finally got a van 4 years old after having a very old one for years. What do you think?

We have just purchased privately a caravan. Stupidly we didn’t check the roof. We have now discovered a hole which comes down from outside into the corner of the wardrobe. The roof is fibreglass. I’ve never had anything remotely like this in years of caravanning. Do I need a specialist to...

That’s really useful thank you for futur As the fuse had blown (but it wasn’t obviously blown), the panel couldn’t detect the heater, so it wasn’t displaying the symbols. My husband changed the fuse and did a soft reset on the panel, we did have the setting symbol still showing, but after the...

Thank you that’s really useful. My husband re checked the fuses today in the daylight and found one which hadn’t obviously blown, but had. I’m pleased to say the heating is working! It has also made the cooler ignition work! I have passed your information on in case there’s a next time. I hope...

Thank you. We have tried a reset multiple times to No avail. I thought I posted a qn how to check we’re getting power to the heater, but I can’t see my reply- sorry am brand new here. If you could let me know how to check that please, that would be great Seems there may be no power to the...

Thank you. Yes have tried reset many times. We have tried a thank you, we have the OM and read it multiple times, plus Google for hours on end! Haven’t found anything yet! Only got one more night so might just grin and bear the freezing cold!

Thank you. We ha thank you. We have tried a reset but it returns to the same Screen with most symbols missing. sorry but I am wifey who doesn’t know a thing. Do you mean use a multimeter and how do you check you’re getting 12v at the heater please?

Thank you. We have done the reset and turned off the 240 & 12v, but will try disconnecting the battery, haven’t tried that yet!

We have just bought a 2018 caravan and the Truma control panel has stopped working. The only symbols showing are the timer and the spanner bottom right. All other symbols have disappeared and there’s no error code. We have no blow air heating and are away with two young children with 4 degrees...

Hello We have just taken delivery of a new second hand caravan and are having the same issue with the control panel. Most of the symbols have disappeared. Did you ever find a solution? We are currently away in February with two young children and it’s 4 degrees at night, so keen to get some...
