Just returned from first outing in our Volkswagen Trophy, absolutely excellent weekend, only two problems found, fridge did not work on 12volt but ok on lpg and mains, and cascade water heater did not work on mains voltage imersion heater but ok on gas, only minor things, can be fixed easily enough. van runs great, returns about 33 miles to gallon on long run, fix the two froblems and we are off again.

If any one can give me any possible cause for the above problems only to willing to listen

the 12 volt supply to fridge often only works when the engine is running.

 

Also if it works with the other sources it will probably work on 12 volt.

Hi

had a problem with my Carver Cascade on mains and it required the reset button (hidden under a white plastic cover) situated on the opposite end to the flue pushing in. Gary at Arc Systems is the man to query with Carver problems

Regards

John
