Just had something burn out in the Motorhome, judging by the smell. 12v systems appear working fine, but 2 of 4 220v sockets non functioning now, and appears not to be charging Leisure battery, and Heater circuits not working
Checked all fuses, but one trip fails to return, so obviously a fault somewhere

We are currently in Jura area of France (approx 100 miles north of Lyon)
Can anyone offer guidance on where to get help / repair

Vehicle LMC Liberty Cruiser A580 built 2009
 
Id check the wiring at the non functioning sockets first, assuming there is nothing plugged into them.
Make sure charger and heater are turned off then see if the breaker will reset, if it does you have narrowed down the fault.

Tried a local dealer but no help there. Am able to travel with leisure charged from engine alternator while driving so will live with condition till return home..not inclined to meddle in case I make situation worse.
Thanks for interest

Sounds like a fault on the charger and it is on the same circuit as the two sockets that are not working, you could disconnect the mains side of the charger and see if the MCB will reset and you get power back to the sockets.
