Hi - congratulations on your first trip.

Silly question with regards to the gas.  Did you have plenty of gas?  Did you open the regulator fully on your gas bottle?

I would duggest that you ensure that the regulator is fully open light all the rings on your hob and then light the oven so that they are all alight.  If the regulator is not fully open this may restrict the amount of gas powering the hob as well as the oven.  If you can try it before you next go away - it could be something that simple.

Not sure about your pump problem - I know we had flickering lights problem once and that was down to me forgetting to flick one of the switches which meant I was using the battery for most things in the caravan rather than the EHU.  Finally realised on packing up and a low battery.  Might be something similiar?

As for the little box with lights on - I can't answer that one or begin to give an idea - although I too have a Bailey mine is slightly older and does not have that. 

Maybe someone on here has the same model as you and can help you.

Did you get any manuals that you can refer to about the box?
