After much crawling round the web I found this old manual for a trailer tent wich is fitted with the same unit, if you look at pages 33 and 34 you can see the fridge mains works from the middle one of the bank of 3 switches on the left side of the unit ..........the 6 fuses all work 12V systems

As the switch is on in your image I can only advise that either the power unit or the fridge has a problem and will most likely need attention from a competent caravan engineer.

Well found Nev. But what about this on page 33?
Quote:-
Mains Module
The PMS4 is designed to operate on a moins supply ol 207 -
253 volts ac (making it ideal for use with low continental voltages).
The 40 amp RCD (Residual Current Device) gives protection
agoinst earth faults and also acts as the main switch. The mains
module also has three MCBt (Miniature Circuit Breakers) which
are basically resetable mains fuses, to protect against overcurrent.
Allocotion of the MCB's is as follows:
MCBI - SocketOutlets
MCB2 - Fridge, (Truma Ultrastore if fitted)
MCB3 (if finedl - (exrra Skt. ;f fined)

Could this be the culprit? Basically resetable mains fuses (if they can be found?) or are these the three switches you are referring to and could that be a re-set button seen on the picture, below the three switches?

My understanding of it is the left switch is the 40 amp RCD
and the three next to that are the 3 MCB's which means the middle one is for the fridge

I think the button below is the polarity test button with the light on the top?

Thanks POP we are in Notts. I think I will 'get a man in' albeit qualified and recommended if possible. No plug in the cupboard tho' that would be toooooo easy. Thanks will enjoy our first trip anyway, you don't need ice with a good corbieres!

Power (230v) is coming in as my mobile is charging.

Phone chargers are 12V so may be charging from the battery in the van..............can you check with something else ............unless its plugged into a 13 amp socket that is.

my phone charger was in the 13 amp socket so I am assuming it is from mains...now you are making me wonder...Oh well we're off tomorrow don't really know why I am worrying its not like we are 'off grid' at Runswick Bay, I think they still have 24hr Tesco's, pubs, fish and chip shops etc etc etc I don't think we will be too bad just wanted everything to be just so for Elsie's first trip away.
Will update people on fridge as we are back....
