Own a Hymer Exsis with the Right front indicator problem! (1 Viewer)

[Woodsie45]

My Auto electrician has checked all, and it is a wire in the RH indicator/lighting loom which has rotted on the inside of the casing in three places!!!!
This is obviously an ongoing problem on these A class vans, Four other owners at the Hymer owners club meet recently have had the same problem.
The Hymer wiring is extremely thin, more so than the Fiat wiring, Its a shame, this is my sixth Hymer and never a problem with Quality, Warrenty work on them seems a real issue through out the agents and sourcing cheap and inferior parts could be their downfall so take Heed Thule ( New Owners of the brand) don't ruin a quality product.

Hi and welcome.

I guess it depends on how old the van is.

Well known problem, if you are handy with a soldering iron it's an easy fix, otherwise £100 for a new loom.

Have a look at this thread.

Hymer Duomobile Indicator Woes

Two years ago, we bought a Hymer Duomobile. The thinking was that with an almost new van (2017), we would have trouble free motoring. We’ve spent happy times touring in northern Spain and stayed in provence for five weeks last year. But..... We SORNed it this spring due to COVID, and when the...

What year is your van?

I'd be more worried about Thor ruining the brand.

The Hymer is 2018 with 4000 mls its inferior parts sourced on the cheap, I expect it in the UK but not from the Germans!!!!
In the past they would want the part returned to check the problem so as to resolve on further production, even if out of warranty. I have been refused twice on different issues from Hymer dealers in the South as I did not purchase through them, so beware it applies to many Brands. .

I have had the same problem with my 2019 Hymer Exsis I. I understand that the same faulty sub standard loom is used on all A class Hymers. Very disappointing. My dealer would not deal with it under warranty.
The good thing was the very quick & accurate response from Funsters, which allowed me to find & fix the problem. I don't think I would have found the fault without this help.
