A Rimor where the interior unit blows but gives no heat usually points to a disrupted fuel or ignition sequence.
A Rimor where the interior unit blows but gives no heat usually points to a disrupted fuel or ignition sequence: an empty gas bottle, a dirty burner, a faulty ignition electrode, or a circuit board that no longer passes on a signal. With an Alde system, there's often air in the central heating pipes or a stuck circulation pump. The thermostat or a blown fuse is usually only suspect if the display doesn't respond or the fan doesn't turn at all.
A heater that won't start or keeps cutting out rarely has a single cause. The diagnosis depends heavily on the type of system in your Rimor and how it's used.
Rimor has been building motorhomes with reliable heating systems for years. Most models are equipped with a Truma Combi (gas or diesel) or Alde water heating on the more expensive versions. Each system has its own typical faults.
With a Truma Combi on gas, the first suspect is usually the gas pressure or a dirty burner. Check that the gas bottle is open and sufficiently filled, and that the gas pressure regulator is not frozen. A common issue is a blocked combustion air inlet or a faulty ignition electrode. With the diesel version, the problem often lies with the fuel pump or a blocked fuel filter.
If your Rimor has an Alde system, warm water circulates through radiators. Air in the circuit, a faulty circulation pump, or a broken thermostat are classic culprits. A leaking coupling can also cause the pressure to drop, causing the boiler to go into fault mode.
For a comprehensive step-by-step guide covering all brands and systems, please refer to our general explanation about motorhome heating not working.
A simple cleaning of the burner or replacing a fuse often costs less than 100 euros. A new circuit board or circulation pump can run up to 400 to 700 euros, depending on the model and labour hours. With an older unit with multiple faults, a complete replacement of the heating boiler may be necessary, which can quickly exceed 1500 euros.
If you are unsure whether an expensive repair is still worthwhile, take a look at the current market value of your motorhome. Sometimes it is wiser to invest in a newer motorhome rather than in a bottomless pit.
