    New Truma Combi

    Finally gave up on our old Trumatic. It sort of worked on our last trip out , we had a couple of red light stops on the control panel then it eventually settled down and worked but I have lost faith in it so bit the bullet and fitted a new Combi. New one has 240 option so thats a bonus too

    Trumatic C4002 circulation fan

    Hi all Has anybody replaced a circulation fan on a trumatic heater. The motor on mine is marked 34000-64100-05.

    Thetford fridge

    Had a fault on the 240 side of our thetford fridge. I could have measured the resistance of the 240 heater element but as we have had one go before I just replaced it. Fridge has to come out and space is a bit tight but something to slide fridge out onto at the right height helps. Fairly simple job
