Does the gas even work, i had a regulator fail which would stop it working
Try the gas hob and see if that works, if anything to rule the regulator out.

If the van is on his drive or property there is no reason why he should not be doing work on it.
The very best person to talk to is Gary at Arc Systems, he is the best there is, give him a ring on his mobile.
I'm not using my caravan its in my drive, I want to make sure it's safe in the event I need to move into it as I'm a key worker
Ok I understand.
My first comment still stands, You should not smell gas, and if you do then that definitely needs to be checked out.
failure to ignite can be caused by a number of things, several of which have already been mentioned. I agree with Damian, you need to speak to someone to try and narrow down the possibilities. Trying to resolve it on a forum wil become quite tedious as there will be questions than need answers, which draws the diagnosis out.
Good luck

Have you got gas to the cooker? If yes does the heater have battery ignition? (If you just push the control knob down to ignite it has.) if yes try new batteries. Go on truma website to see how to do it. If it’s manual ignition can you see it sparking, through the little window. If you can’t then the cable may be shorting out. This happens sometimes when the ignition cable rubs on the fire grill. To crack this one you need help. Come back on here if you get this far.

There is no point going to the Truma website for instructions about anything to do with this heater, it is a Carver, and as said before, Gary is the very best person to talk to.
This manual might help......click here
Almost impossible to help via a forum with fault diagnosis but check heater gas supply is turned on at gas isolating manifold inside caravan.
