Turn off gas at the bottle. (as per instructions on bottle)
Then open gas on hob. Like your going to light it.
Turn off gas on hob.
Turn on gas on bottle.

Try as normal.
Did this once on ours and it worked when we knew the bottles were full.

The regulator thats bolted to the back of the gas locker cupboard not on the bottles.
OK I'll have to take the bike off due to the bright idea that once the bike is on you can't open the locker fully

Who's bright idea was that . And it's piddling down :rofl:

That is the anti-rupture valve not the regulator.
Do you have a bottle top regulator or a bulkhead mounted one ?

Ok you have a bulkhead regulator If there is a little green button towards the bottom of the Regulator press it in and old for a few seconds, also if you have a big green button on the hose by the bottle press than in.

Also it looks like your regulator is mounted far too low it needs to be above the bottles with the hoses sloping downwards to the bottles.
It was fitted by Basildog at autogas2000 not some cowboy back street person

There should be a Gas distribution manifold in the van somewhere, are the taps turned to the on position?
Last time I looked at a manifold it was in an Austin 1100

Can’t tell from your photo but do you have a yellow button to press in as shown in this photo? It would be out of sight behind the body of the regulator on your setup…

No buttons and for some reason the garage won't let me play with it under their canopy in the dry

Can't understand why not just bought gas off then 🤷‍♀️

Are they new bottles you have just had fitted?
did Autogas do the first fill?
