Who's "they". Hobby? What year the 'van? What make the transformer?

I've just looked at mine, (2004) and the converter (model 240/1), although no name on it, looks remarkably similar to the current Dometic 240/8, although mine has 3 12v fuses and the other has only 2. Worth giving Dometic UK a ring (0844 626 0133).

Whatever, probably won't be cheap - Hobby spares are as rare as rocking horse sh1t in the UK.
