Most people don’t know what it is and how it works or the fact that you must text it upon every trip
This caravan has it in the front boot but others will have it in the caravan under the bed or hidden away in a cupboard
You must physically check that the system locks all 4 wheels up. You can do this by pulling the switch pin out and driving away slowly, it should lock all wheels. If it doesn’t, you will need to investigate further before setting off on your journey.
Call Mike to discuss any of your caravan safety and compliance questions - 0417 789 934
Here is one item to check... do you have a Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) stamped or welded onto your caravan chassis or a frame?
It is a legal requirement to meet the Identification requirements for a Roadworthy. If you can’t see the VIN anywhere you can stamp it onto the Coupling Plate or onto the A Frame.
Upon a caravan pre purchase inspection we found the number wasn't stamped onto the a frame or chassis so here is an example of one we had to fix up.
If you have any questions about caravan compliance please Contact Mike on 0417798934
