Hi Elaine

Congratulations on the new caravan.

Heres a link for a 2003 Handbook, it might give you some info.

You will be able to get a remote for your Mover, but they are expensive (£80 - £90)

I got a spare remote off ebay for my Powertouch for £20 plus postage. If you keep looking one will eventually be listed.

Finding out how things work is all part of the fun, you'll be an "expert" in no time.

The Carver compact will take a crystal 2 pump - or at least ours does.  We have a 2003 lunar van.  The difference is the fitting into the van.  I was trying to find pictures on the Truma uk site but there is nothing very good.

Hi Elaine

If you look here at the bottom the difference appears to be that a MK2 has a big screw in cylinder filter, and the MK3 has the smaller square flat push in one.

I think the pump fits both.

Hopefully someone with the same model will reply and confirm this.

Cheers

The model Elaine has is the Compact (also known as the Winter kit) which doesn't have the filter at all.   It's not very easy to describe what the difference is.  The Mk3 is a completly different fitting to the Mk2.  As I say ours is a Compact and definatley uses a Mk2 as we just had to replace it the other week.

I don't think there will be a specific handbook for your model. They just tend to have a general handbook and then you get lots of separate manufacturers info on each of the things ie fridge, cooker, toilet etc.  I have the carver one but it's in the caravan which is in skegness at the moment or I would have copied it for you.

Thanks for the info, I knew someone would have a definative answer for Elaine.

I know what its like as when we got our first Caravan, we went away and didn't realise we even needed a pump.

I see you live in Cottingham, we live Hessle........... Small World.

Hi Paul

It is a Small World isn't it - i'll give you a wave as I'm going over the bridge on Friday evening on my way to my caravan in Skeggy.

We were lucky when we got our first van as my dad has had a van for years so knew exactly what we needed and we got chance to play with everything (as we kept it at his house) before we went on our first outing.  We just got our new van a few weeks ago so were still finding our way around things ourselves - like the heating which we've not had much cause to use yet.

if it does you should be okay.

we have almost the same van, same year. i`ll check our pump in the morning and let you know. it looks similar to the one in the pic.
