Hi
     W have just bought a pennine pathfinder 600 tc trailer tent 1998 model. I have hooked it up at home to charge the battery which I think was nearly flat, and this works but I can't get any of the 240 v sockets to work also the fridge is not getting any 240 power either. I know we have 240v power going into the camper because the battery charger is built in and as I said above is charging the battery. Any ideas why or help would be great.

John

Hi, Thanks for replys got the 240v working now your right one switch was the wrong way. My next problem is i dont think the fridge is working, i have switched it on and set the thermostat to around 5 , but i'm not sure if the fridge should make some sort of noise like the domestic fridges in our house any ideas on this? Many Thanks John

what fridge is it electrolux?there is no motor in the so there will be no sound off it and can take 3-4hrs to become cool you could switch it on and get something thats at room temp and put in the fridge and check later to see if its cool the small cool box usually cools first cheers alan
