I have a fault on the led control panel mounted above the sink on our 12 year old CI Carioca 10.
Has anyone any idea how to remove this panel without actually dismantling the MH
There are no screws and no access behind the sink light
The thing looks bonded in and I certainly don't want to damage it as a replacement may prove very difficult
I feel like I am missing a trick somewhere

Thanks in anticipation

Mine is almost the same, try this if it helps, put a flat piece of ply about 1/8th then try and insert a flat bladed (blunt)but pointed if you know what I mean, and use the ply as a pivot to lift the surround of the panel, which should come away from the recess,, and try to cure the fault by putting the removed panel in the freezer for about half an hour in a plastic bag, it may sound daft but it actually clears the memory chip in it!!!!!

tried that wineciccio. trouble is that there is no surround on it, it is just a flat plastic panel with quadrants that light up to show tank and battery levels when you press the button and it has a couple of switches (rockers) one of which turns the 12v off but it only turns off now and then. The other fault is that the panel should supply power to the awning light but it doesn't.

The faults aren't a problem if I could get the thing out as the whizz kids at work can repair almost anything
I like the freezer idea though
