I'm from nz. Got one of these flash English caravans. My problem is, the griller ignition. It lights. After many attempts it does actually stay on. Does anybody know how to get the thermocoupler out. Have heard it's an easy fix.( just getting out would be a good start) sometimes it's just a dirty contact. Once cleaned it's back together. At worst replacement part. Sometimes tapping the nob half a dozen times hard enough for it to depress to its stop point. Can be enough..

you do realise that once you have got it lit you have to keep the knob pressed in for around 20-30 seconds after? or the supply of gas goes off.

Welcome. We wont hold being a Kiwi against you, now if you'd been a damned Ozzie .... (only kidding if you're an Oz!)

We'd need to know the actual cooker model to give specific advice, but if it's a typical Thetford (Spinflo) cooker, the spare parts exploded diagram can give some clues on how it all fits together, Google for it.

Specific dismantling instructions don't seem to exist as such, it's often a bit of engineering know how and trial and error that gets most folk through problems, they then pass that knowledge/experience on to others. Seem to recall from other posts, that you may have to remove cooker from it's installed position to reach 'hidden' fasteners on the sides that hold the top burner deck in place, but before you go ripping it out, I'd wait for others to reply with hopefully specific advice.
