Hia- I wondered if anyone could help. We bought a Bailey pageant champagne caravan (about 2001) last year. On our first holiday my partner touched the back of the caravan & received an electric shock. We realised the carpet was damp by the sink (the seller had said the previous owner had frozen pipes & had gotten some repairs done) so we took off the sink to check. To our horror we realised the waste pipe was hanging off & all the water was going straight onto the fridge. We dried it all out & re-attached the pipe. Unfortunately the caravan was still live & you would receive a mild electric shock if you touched it outside. After a very careful 2 week holiday we returned & saw the man who sold it us (he stores caravans & sells them) he said he would get his man who repairs them to check the electrics. He told us there was a loose wire in the main switch box so he had wired it back in. We checked the caravan and it wasn't live any more. We went on holiday to realise the water would not work at all (it made no sound etc) so when we returned we told the man again-who said he would find out what had been wired (as this obviously had now stopped the water pump working.) I am now dubious about letting this repair man do anymore as I don't think he is qualified. Has anyone got any advice for things to check etc or had a similar problem? Thanks for any advice, Dora-helen.
