Hi. Has anyone got a wiring diagram for an Elddis Tornado XL 1988? I have a couple of wires on the ZIG unit that I believe may be reversed, and I need to check it out.

Hi leon copa, any time that is convenient would be fine, thanks. I have been looking everywhere for a manual, with no luck. It's probably too old for Elddis to have one, and I can't even find one on ebay.

We still have a few jobs to do before we can use the van, and sorting the electrics is one of them. Any info would be useful, thanks.

Hi Colin. My handbook is the Elddis touring caravan handbook for 1993. It has various wiring diagrams including one for the XL range which included the Tornado.
Can e-mail the diagram to you if you think it may help. Need to know where to send it perhaps by e-mail if you can let me know
Regards

Doug

Hi Doug. Thanks very much for the offer. I'm not sure whether we are supposed to show our email addresses on here but I'll take a chance, as there doesn't seem to be any way to send personal messages through the forum. It's colin_dye20 at hotmail.com

Hi Colin E-Mail sent but changed "at" to " at " and no spaces so hope it gets to you.
Perhaps remove your post if you want to keep e-mail private. I can't see any other way to correspond although by clicking E-mail this topic at bottom of page I think this can be done?

Hi Doug, Thanks very much for the diagram. It actually arrived twice. I can now check out the wiring on the back of my Zig unit, which I believe has a couple of wires crossed. Someone has obviously fiddled around with the wiring, and this is the last stage in restoring things to how they should be. All is now working except the water pump, which is where I believe the wiring has been reversed.

Looking at your diagram, it seems I am right. The blue/brown wire to the taps is connected to the negative terminal on the back of the Zig, whereas it should be positive. No wonder the pump doesn't work.

Best Regards,
Colin
