HI - We recently bought a new to us caravan, 2003 Swift Speedbird.

It's our first weekend away in it and going lovely, apart from a couple of silly things that I'm looking for help on.

We've had the water working and both hot and cold were fine, but they've stopped. We can here the microswitch "click" but nothing is coming through now.

Also, we were told we had both gas and electric heating - the gas is working fine.  In the wardrobe we have a switch for space heater and the fire has a blow air control but it blows cold. Should there be a thermostat and where would it be?

Thanks in advance.

Gail.

has something tripped the RCD?

There should be a set of RCD`s somewhere, ours are in the wardrobe, make sure they are all up, if any are down this will be the problem, its strange that two things are off.
