Full details

The SecureFix Direct Caravan Mains Hook Up Cable is designed for campers, caravanners, and motorhome owners who need a reliable and safe connection to campsite power supplies.

Troubleshooting

No power to the caravan/motorhome

Check that the campsite power source is switched on. Verify that the cable is fully plugged into both the campsite hook-up and the vehicle's inlet. Inspect the cable for any visible damage. Test the connection with another compatible device if possible.

Cable feels warm during use

Ensure the cable is fully uncoiled. Avoid running the cable under heavy loads for extended periods without proper ventilation. If the cable becomes excessively hot, disconnect immediately and inspect for damage or overloading.

Connector is difficult to plug in or remove

Ensure there is no debris or dirt in the plug or socket. Check for any bent pins or damaged housing on either the plug or the socket. Do not force the connection.

Visible damage to the cable casing

Do not use the cable if the outer casing is cut, frayed, or damaged. Damaged cables can be a safety hazard. Replace the cable immediately.
