Repair of motorhome heating systems
As a recreational vehicle repairer, you know that a faulty heating system can cause major inconvenience for your customers. Malfunctions can take many forms: power failures, piezo problems, illuminated warning lights, or difficulties using the heating mode. These malfunctions are often due to a fault on the heating system’s electronic board. Repairing this board is a cost-effective, long-lasting solution, often more advantageous than replacing the entire system. We repair a variety of heating systems and electronic boards, enabling you to offer quality service while reducing costs for your customers.

Repairing motorhome heating systems - Identifying common faults and repair solutions

Heating systems in motorhomes and vans are essential to ensure user comfort. However, these systems can suffer from a variety of faults. For a repairer, it's crucial to understand the most common faults in order to offer appropriate solutions. Here are the typical faults found on these heating systems:

  • Power supply failure: Frequently caused by a fault in the electronic board or the power supply circuit, this failure prevents the system from starting and requires rapid intervention to avoid immobilizing the vehicle.
  • Piezo problems: A failure of the piezo ignition mechanism can prevent the heater from starting, particularly in gas models, and often requires repair of the electronic board.
  • Lights on continuously: Warning lights (red or yellow) indicate a malfunction in the heating system, often linked to a fault on the control board or an internal circuit error.
  • Difficulty switching modes: If the heater freezes or does not respond when switching from one mode to another (air or water heating), this may be due to the control board, which needs to be repaired for optimum operation.

Repairing your heating system 's circuit board rather than replacing the entire unit reduces costs for your customers and extends the life of their equipment. What's more, by choosing repair, you offer a more environmentally-friendly alternative by avoiding waste.
