hmm "so called"

ive never been called that before , why thankyou jennifernn

i have had it where some of the customers , when booking a motor mover to be fitted are not sure what plug they needed , was the fitter/dealer made aware first ?

back to the problem , if its fitted with a 13pin unit i belive its a requirement to keep it ,

i think to carry an adaptor regardless as you might have to rely a 3rd party (the AA, Recovery via a lorry, a friends banger) who isnt lucky to have a tow vehicle with a 13pin socket atached ?
it should be a requirement under a mot style to carry one so you can use it in both ways ,otherwise it would not just be unsafe but ilegal too, ut thats my feelings on that

Now Now Dave,

In pointing me in the direction of the wiring diragram are you condoning the use of non conforming modifications to the Truma system.  And invalidate the warranty !!

Never my intention - just a simple question thats all.

I am going to make a call to the dealer in the morning and get them to change the socket to the 13 pin type...... job done.

Thanks again Jennifer, one more on the tab

Inthenightgarden,

All recovery trucks etc that are capable of recovering a 27 foot caravan carry lightboard that have the tow truck registration number on.  All RAC/AA vans also carry this same type of light board that they run from their van and can hang on the back of the van/car etc.  This then covers all eventualities.

Like your thinking though

Inthenightgarden,

Dont know who you use as a recovery agent, but it might be time to change ! Sounds like you have had the unfortunate experience of using some real dodgy ones ! and even more important, as Jennifer says, remember the number plate !
