I have a 2016 motorhome on a Boxer cab with 3500 miles on the clock from new. Recently whenever I put the cruise control on a number of warning lights light up as well as the cruise light. They all go off again when I turn the cruise off.

Has anyone else had this problem? I'll get onto the garage next week sometime but thought I would see if this is a common fault. Thanks for any help in advance.

    Halls,

    The problem is exceptionally well documented on the various motorhome forums and is a well known problem, seemingly on both the Peugeot & Fiat derivatives.....

    If you do a google search it should bring up plenty for you to read.....

    Your dealer should be aware of the issue, but as said, you can read up on it prior to visiting them just in case they act daft.......

    The problem is called light bleed. You should be able to get the dash panel changed under warranty - takes about 45 minutes.  As Tintent says, it's well documented.

    Thanks for the advice. Robin and Day in Gateshead who supply all Elddis with their vans said they hadn't come across it  and I would have to take it in to them so I'll wait until after my hols. It sounds a simple job once they accept it needs doing anyway 😊
