When I connect my grey plug to the van there is a clicking sound in the van & the light in the fridge flashes on & off.
No reversing light either. Had a tow bar co. check the grey plug on the car with a light probe all pins o.k.
Could it be a fuse in the van?. Its a 2005 ACE Jubilee Herald Your thoughts please

Hi
Have you checked the connections in the grey plug on the van?
Wiring could have gone green overtime with water ingress causing a short,or bad connection.
If so cut it back and re-wire.

Then if not corrected move back to the next conection where it meets the van wiring.

Hi Andy.
May be in front locker or further in the van.
Just trace the wiring back from the plug to the next junction.

The clicking you can hear may be the fridge trying to light itself, but failing due to the gas supply being switched off.
Set the fridge to 12v and the gas to off and clicking should stop.
