*HOW TO* Fix a Truma Ultra-Heater Caravan Repairs My Caravan Project 

The unit heats up fast and is super quiet. It looks fancy ru-vid.comUgkxl8Od2BvnGbn1ffwqsuFXW0QnmcZgMiVY and can be kept in the living room. It gets hot within a split second of turning on the unit. The build quality is exceptionally good and is safe to be around kids and pets. This one is super quiet and can be kept on while in office meetings, my wife loved it. It shows the temperature right on the unit which is very useful and adding a rotating feature helps to heat up the surrounding, so other people will not fight with you for heat. It is right as described in the description..!! Definitely recommend!!

Took your advice and fixed my fire. Saved me a fortune Thanks

Thank you for posting this, it gave me the confidence to open up the heater and fix the problem. I refused to spend £60 on the kit someone was selling so managed to source the parts myself.

Excellent vid, the top temp control had disintegrated ant the bottom limiter was ok but I replaced it anyway, saved a fortune and works great, thanks

Cheers bud. You show me plenty to get on with the job. I hate wasting money on repairs that Ican do myself

Looks like this vid has given me something to think about to resolve issues with my heating system

thanks for the info love your accent

just checked mine. one crumbled when i took off. removed both off and clipped wires together to test and voila - its working! so i'm going to order the sensors to replace. thanks to Patrik also for his comment with the ebay item numbers ;)

Very informative - thanks for posting.

Thanks for the video, my truma s5000 works on gas but no longer on the electric so I bet it will be the thermostats you pointed out. We are away shortly so will us gas for the next two weeks and do a strip down in May. Bless you brother, phill

Brilliant video. I have mine in bits atm gonna bench test it as it keeps tripping after a while

Hey Attic Treasures, thanks for the video, I have a gas heater just like this one but with out all the electric components so i think mine must be older. i brought it from a guy who was seeling parts of an old caravan and i am about to install it in my van/ stealth camper conversion. i have decided to do away with the front cover and the fan system that moves the hot air around the camper becuase i only have to heat a small space. because of my limited space i am building cupboards around it. i can see that you have a similar arangment which is reasuring as i was curious wether or not it could be a hazard to have so much wood around the heater? what do you think? (ps i have covered all the wood imediately surrounding the heater in sheets of aluminium similar to the alu sheet here in your video. thanks

Interesting video thanks I go a Truma s3002 the mechanics look the same although the controls look opposite. I’m pretty sure I’ve got problems with my thermocoupler have you done a video on replacing one. My heater is fitted in a Campervan. Cheers pete

Very helpfull,thanku.

Hi, when you had this problem with the thermostat did your ultraheat keep going off on the dial. My one is an older version than yours with the two separate dials and it turns on initially say to the 2kw setting then goes off when I adjust the temp then I can't get the dial to illuminate at any of the three power settings.

Any advice please. I disconnected the electrical part on my heater and can not reconnect it. Your advice was to be very careful because replacement boards are £80-£90. The electrical connector will push in but isn’t connecting to anything and just falls out. What can I do?

hi. do you know how to remove the actual control knob for the electric as mine is faulty

Hey dude how do I get the motor out of fan as have it out but having trouble getting it off cheers

Hey mate, I think mine has gone. It's sited in West Wales, would you fancy a hobble to fix it for me?

Hi I've got a Truman s3002 heater on mine I'm not getting power to the thermo and on and off would you now where I start to look kind regards rob

Just watched you explaining about fire. That sounds exactly my problem and I'm very handy and confident to repair myself. What seal do I need name for eBay. And to check mine has stopped working on turning the wall thermostat. A caravan repairer told me it's the temp control something ?? Would love to hear from you.

Many thanks for this helpful video. Can you tell me where you got the new thermostats from as I have exactly the same problem.

Just bought a motor home and plugged into electric Fan blows cold air not hot and water is cold any chance you can help fix it for me thanks Darren from York

Hi thanks for the video. Mine is making a buzzing noise when I set the thermostat to around 20, and it's not heating up at all. Should I remove the gas part of it as per your video? Thanks.

My hearer won't start now .does it need a flnew Flint or a battery.its a old swift caravan.

Could you show us how to service a caravan heater

Hi, do you know how to fix the fan for the blow heating, good work, very informative. cheers billy

The gas heater is being used and still the initial ticking noise is still there, won't go away, any advice?

My rod that goes down to ignite the gas( the one that makes the clicking noise i not attached to anything. Should it not be? Can you get me some sort of diagram that i can look at?

Hi, mine doesn't seem to he throwing enough gas heat out, I can see blue flame after its boosted but even on gas setting at its highest setting 10 not much heat at all, what could it be please?

Hi fellow Welshman.. great video.. just bought my first van but having a problem. Heater will run off gas and blowers work fine. Plugged into hookup I’m not getting a green light from thermostat switch / adjuster.. checked plug fuse and all fine 🤔 pls help

Hi, great vid, hoping it will work for me but how can you tell if the termostats have gone? also can you tell if its the element?

My heater blower is not working but the elements is chucking out heat any idea.

Good video - my ultraheat 230v Keeps tripping and now I get the green light but if I turn up heat - it trips . it has been tripping from time to time and completely at random. I guess i will try and replace thermostats as per your video. Where did you get them from

To test if it’s the electric element perform a continuity test on the element, to test thermostat use an ohm test

My gas fire worked untill I had it gas tested, I turned it on and it worked fine but the flame turned off.... this must have been as a result of air being in the system, I have tried lighting it and holding the switch down but it no longer makes the clicking sound. I am convinced I have held down the switch long enough to let any trapped air through so I wondered if there is a battery systen somewhere that may have failed?

the gas switch as snapped on my fire..but i tried the electric heating but all i get is cold air..what maybe the problem?..🤷‍♂

If you brake the fan switch board, just solder it and put some bi-component epoxy glue under it. It will be stronger than new one.

The switch on mine is broken where it goes in to ignite the heater. I can't tell if I'm missing any parts, or whether I can fix it myself. I can't find a diagram anywhere, please help!

I do recommend you get a gas safety check by a competent engineer, gas safe registration doesn't come into it as it is a tourer and would require a gas safe certificate every time you changed the bottle there are different rules for tourers!

My heater is gas and electric the heater part worked but not the fan now it has gone completely I’ve been quoted 350ish £ how can I check myself

Hi mine is a carver gas only 36000 I moved it( but not not completely) to grease the fan bearing which was squeaking, when i put it back it will not fire up, just clicks, there are no leaks and everything is tight, the instructions says sometimes you get air in the system but i tried for ages and nothing, gas to everything else is fine, can you help?

that long wire on the right that attaches to the gas settings and ignition mine has come off so what does it fit on?

My heater doesn't work the pilot light is lighting but then going out the long thing coming off the ignition in side the heater as now broke off my heater hasn't worked since I've had the caravan any tips

Where did you get the replacement elements?

Don't pull the front cover off lift it up then it will come away. Force will break it

Our heater stopped working the light went out on the control switch and now blowing cold are do you think it's the thermostat?

I have a truma 3002p igniter is working but I cannot get the gas to ignite. Last time I used the fire it lit fine when I tried it again shortly after the fire did not light but made a bang obviously build up of gas and it will not now run on gas works fine on electric please help Kind Regards Martyn

The fan on our truma heater isn't working. The heater itself works but we don't get any heat through the blowers around the caravan. Any ideas please would be welcome. This is all new to us lol

My truma 230v works on electric but the battery for gas ignition keeps clicking, any ideas please?

Anybody!!...... desperately seeking help! I bought my first motorhome last winter. An old reasonably priced one that was in good technical condition, to find out if this way of traveling was anything for me. Now I am on a trip in northern Norway and here the summers are cold. Now I got problems with my trumatic s3002k from the year of 1994. A red warning light comes on after a short time, the fan reduces the speed and after a short time the heat turns off. The warning light is located on the underside of the front panel. The ignition is connected directly to the 12v battery bank. I can not figure out what the problem is. Can not find answers in the user manual. Is there anyone who can give me any advice?

Can these heaters run with out gas

My fire started making a clicking noise and would not heat up...any ideas ?

My carver heater is not blowing through the ducts although the slider switches are turned to position

Can you help us fix our fire please!!!

How in God's name do you get the cover back on ? Mine is hanging low and I've no idea why ...

Man this is useless. You didn't take it apart.
