Hi all,

I am very much a newbie to the caravanning world having recently purchased an ABI Ace Tycoon.  I noted there was a set switches on the wall for the fanmaster, waterheater and 12v/pump however I never seemed to get the first to two switches (fanmaster/waterheater) to work, in other words I would press the on button but nothing would light up or work.  As the water was hot anyway I could only assume it was being heated from the gas however  the fanmaster would not work at all despite pressing the reset switch.  Anyway I put this to the back of my mind until having recently taken the van out again however this time I noted straight away that the wall switches for the fanmaster and water heater were now lit up, still though I could not get the fanmaster to run.  As for the water heater switch well the alarm light was lit up so I naturally investigated and pushed the reset button on the water heater.  Having done this I found that the water was becoming hot again however the wall switches were again dead, no power, no lights except again for the 12v/pump switch.

So I have checked all fuses, checked battery and really do not understand what is going on and very much appealing to any knowledgeable caravanners out there who may have some advice or point me in the right direction.  I live in Bridgend so if there is anyone who knows of someone in this area that can be recommended then please could you let me know.

Thanks all
