I have a 2019 Coachman Laser which has just gone back for some warranty work. Unfortunately, we have experienced a bizarre power supply problem. It usually happens when the heating is on, the lights and DC television is connected. The cooker or other heavy usage items are not connected at the time.
The problem is that the lights, Alde control panel, master control panel, tv shut down for perhaps 5 seconds and then return to normal. Once this has started, the frequency between power outages increases. Turning all the power off for an hour seems to reset it. This has happened on a number of sites, so I am confident that the site supply is not a problem. Annoyingly, it doesn't happen every trip, so it has a random nature to it. In addition, it can even happen during the night when the lights are out and the tv is connected, although not switched on. We are usually woken by lights flashing and the television switching itself on and off.
My dealer has had the caravan connected with everything running and cannot replicate the problem - as I feared would be the case.
Although my gut feeling is that the 12V charger is overheating, I wondered whether any other Coachman owners do or have suffered the same problem in the past.
