Rear of motorhome cold while traveling.

Hi BoleroBoy, thanks again I’ll switch on heating with the blower on with gas this evening then start the van and see if it stays on or goes off. I’ll post the result this evening.

cheers 👍

MMM article

,ay or may not be relevant to heating fan...

I make my wife sit in the back whilst travelling. She has enough hot air to heat our 7.77m passion wagon. 

Good reading there BoleroBoy. As we thought, switched heating on with the gas but as soon as you start the engine all the habitation 12v shuts down so heating doesn’t work when driving in the 2017 Elddis 😂. Looks like passengers in the rear will need to wrap up after all 😀.

the contributor aandacaravans is the regular battery/electrics guru and he is baffled as to why the 12v systems switch off...

however, as posted by Bill (Kontiki) he has an ALDE system which can make use of engine heat to heat the radiator fluid (in lieu of gas) but this would need the 12v to pump the fluid around the radiators...

im sure he would also have the Secumotion Crash Safe regulator and hose for gas heating on the move....it rather defeats the object if the 12v  goes of and it can't work.....perhaps other UK vanners can do the same test as you....

either way, if I really wanted this working, I'd be checking with a few other owners and then chat to Elddis....

anyway, good luck....
