Sorry to hear you have a few problem but you will find tons of help on these pages. Someone will always know how to fix it. Roof light leaking could be down to how much sun we have had and its either dried the sealant out or everything got very hot and expanded and different rates. Removing the roof light and resealing is not a major problem.
You could probably do with a few basic tools if you don't already have them and a multimeter for checking electrics. If you get one someone will show you how it works and how to test fuses. You could also do with a roll of gaffer tape. Don't buy a cheap one you want it to stick. This can be used for all sorts of purposes.
You have to remember that the average CARAVAN is used for 2 weeks a year and a couple of weekends away. Most of the parts for MH's have come from the same source and were never designed to be used daily. Everything is just that little bit weaker than it should be and as the bits get older the plastic gets very brittle and bingo. You can find lots of bits on EBay at realistic prices and there are also a number of breakers that have parts.
Hope you get it all sorted

Thank you for your kind words.
That's a really good point about the daily use. Everything does seem pretty cheap and plasticky, I'm amazed any of it lasts as long as it does really.
I have tools in the van and duct tape. I even have a multimeter, purely because when I used to read advice threads on here before I bought the van, they always mentioned them! Haven't got a clue how it works though :raofl: I also have sikaflex and WD40 for the same reason!
