Hi All
with the new season approaching we had the van serviced, collecting it two fridays ago, as we cannot keep the van at home it goes into storage.
Last Friday, full of anticipation we collected the van, took it home, connected the mains lead, set the fridge, stocked up ready for the weekend.
Unfortunately we did not check everything, arrived on site, set up.... NO hot water!!!!!!, worked perfectly before the service.
Brother in law also with us, had his van serviced in the same place, NO sockets working...
Searching around we found the booklet for the water heater, tried the gas system, still not working, switched it all off, let if for a couple of hours, switched back on, jey presto it worked.
It appears that everything was left switched on after the service, including the water heater, hence when power is reconnected the thermal overload cut out and has to be switched off before it will reset.. another lesson learned, should have known as all the taps were left open.
The brother in laws mcb was u.s, a round trip of about 40 miles, quick change over and bob's your uncle all working again.... another lesson... check everything after a service, then check it again.
Cracking weekend, even the snow on Sunday morning looked good.
