I have recently bought a caravan as a project and unfortunately there wasn’t a heater in there.
However I have now sourced a Carver 3600stc with an attached fanmaster unit.

However the chap who I got it from has just cut the wires on the back of the control panel and also on the back of the heater itself so I’m struggling to figure out how to wire it in.
If only it was as easy as reconnecting the same coloured wires back together, but there are more than one wire that’s the same colour.

Can anyone advise which wires go where?

Please find attached pictures so you can see what I mean.

There are two wires connected to the gas heater unit:
orange/white
black/blue



Then there are three wires coming out of the back of the Fanmaster unit:
Orange/white
Green/white
Red/green



There are two connections on the back of the fanmaster control panel.
12volt which has:
X2 orange/white
X2 blue/black

Heater control cable:
Orange/white
Green/white
Red/green



I can only presume that the:
Orange/white, Green/white & Red/green that comes from the back of the fanmaster unit goes directly to the heater control panel?

And possibly one of the orange/white and blue/black wires from the 12v slot on the back of the control panel goes to the gas heater unit?



But where does the remaining orange/white and blue/black wire go from the back of the control panel 12v connector.
Would this connect to a 12v supply?

If so which is positive and which is negative?

If I’m not correct would you be able to advise.

I hope this isn’t too confusing and am very airing in anticipation that someone can help.

The man you need to contact is Gary of Arc Systems.
Then if you need any replacement bits you have a good source.

XVI yes?

As well is two words!
How does a sage know everything about everything? or does he? or does he just think he does?
Remember, if you buy something you bought it, not brought it.

Does this help? Section 7 gives colour codes.

Give Gary time to respond, I believe he is a one man band.

Thanks buddy, I appear to have an extra 12v positive and negative wire. But I shall wait for Gary to post before attempting to install it. Many thanks again.

I believe that Gary posted 2 or 3 weeks ago requesting to be contacted only by telephone.
