I have a 1994 Bailey Pageant Magenta which i bought last September all seemed ok when I used it last year but appears to have developed a fault which I cant seem to fathom and would like some expert advice from more experienced caravanners than myself as this is my first foray into caravanning ...............
The problem seems to be that when we use electric hook up there is a buzzing sound which emits from the Carver waterheater control panel and also the TVand the lights seem to dim, the waterheater appears to be failing to ignite as the ignition is persistently trying to light but the amber light flashes on and off whilst running hot water.
All these problems cease when we flick the switch to use the battery as the power source and everything runs fine on the 240 sockets, electric fire, TV etc
This is the first time we have encountered this problem and have tried to eliminate the obvoius causes ie insufficient gas, new hook up lead, low water etc
Can anybody throw any light (pardon the pun!!!!) on this frustrating problem for me, sorry for my ignorance but we all have to start somewhere - apart from the teething problems we love it !!!!!

Topic: can anyone help please ?????
we have plenty of hot water and the heater ignites fine but the problem seems to be that when we turn on the hot water tap the yellow light flickers, the water pump runs slow and the caravan lights flicker it seems as if there is a drain on the whole electrics, but when we transfer the supply to the caravan battery everything works fine ??????
