I doubt if anyone on here will be able to help with anything like that for that make of caravan.
I would look for one for sale and ask the seller to photocpoy stuff for you.
Looking on another forum it says the heating is Truma, you would be able to get info from the Truma website.

Not a lot of info out there on Cristall, and some of it is distinctly contradictory/confusing. Found this statement from NZ review "Built in the Netherlands for the UK market, the Moorea is designed in Belgium to German standards". Another source says Cristall were a Belgian manufacturer, which sort of ties in, but they now appear to be defunct as no trace, yet another source says "Lunar (UK builder) built the vans for sale on Euro market under Cristall brand name", could be they built them under contract for the Cristall company, and yet another review says they were built in Germany, that one shows the habitation door on continental side (opposite side to UK spec) so either aimed at Euro market or based on a Euro manufactured van!
Doesn't help you a lot, really makes your task harder if anything as a very confusing history to the brand. There are still a few Cristall vans for sale in UK, so not a totally obscure brand/model, but rather long in the tooth and manuals etc. do seem to get lost over time. Perhaps best to gather info on individual bits and try to fill in the gaps for yourself, all the appliances are typical bought in items from the big names, generally the manuals for those have installation wiring diagrams and are easy to find on the internet. Might be worth obtaining manuals for Lunar vans from that era and see if the wiring looks similar, wouldn't know which if any continental manufacturers to point you at to try a similar tack, but may be worth more research.
Someone may be able to give you an answer to a specific problem if that's what you have, but you'd have to give us details.
Generally speaking, the caravan manufacturers own manual is little more than a compilation of appliance instructions 'cut and pasted' into a single document, so not always as uniquely informative as you may think, but often they do have wiring diagrams not to be found elsewhere. The upside is that the manuals are often common to a range, or all models of that year and don't tend to vary much from year to year, so you don't necessarily have to restrict yourself to finding the manual for your specific van, look for ANY Cristall manual from that era (give or take say 2-3 years) and you may find it covers your van.
Good luck, and don't be afraid to ask questions, there's a wealth of knowledge amongst us, even if we don't have documents at our disposal.
Thanks for your replies i will try with the aplpliances and the for sales in the uk ,the wiring in the wardrobe looks like a plate of spaghetti, not that i know much a out eléctricos but i can"t be that dificultades,fingers cross.
TBH, from new the wiring doesn't always look impressive or particularly professional! On an older van, every chance it's been tampered with and mangled by a long succession of 'monkeys' so bears no resemblance to the original wiring diagram anyway! Very much on your own under those circumstances as it will be unique, a good working knowledge of electrics is a godsend.
My van was only two years old when I bought it, still under manufacturers warranty, serviced by approved dealers, but some monkey had tampered with it and buggered some lights! Fortunately I have a electrical/electronics background so could rectify the issues. Wouldn't trust a dealer to sort electrics beyond replacing parts until the problem has gone away, expensive method, and not really faultfinding!
Badly written electricidad is not my best subject i bought the caravan from a older woman whos husband had died, they bought it new in 2005/6 b
b ut it has always been in spain so I might be lucky another question is lpg can i use propane some people say yes and others no. I guess i need a boyfriend Who is electricion and plumber!!!!!! Any ofertas????
You can use either propane or butane but you will need a different regulator for each. However, if you intend using the caravan during the colder months I recommend that you do use propane as it works down to a much lower temperature. At freezing point butane tends to stay as a liquid in the bottle and so is unusable. If you have any specific questions about the electrics just ask, as there are plenty on here who can help. If you put your approximate location in your profile, you never know, someone may even be local to you and offer to help in person.
Have you searched for mobile caravan engineers who will come to you.
There are bound to be at least some Brits who have such a set up.
