I’ve receieved a contact email from a reader with a problem with the door locks on their Bessacar E415 and she wonders if anyone out there can help.
Here is the email;
Message: We have a Bessacarr E415 motorhome and have problems with
the lock. When we bought it they said something about it having a
‘double lock’. Sometimes when we close the door it automatically
locks and we can be locked out completely if we do not have a set of
keys with us. The main problem is that more often than not we just
cannot open the door using the key. Luckily we can access the van
through the driver or passenger door. Does anyone else experience
these problems or have any suggestions how the lock works?
Hopefully someone out there has had a similiar problem and can be of help.

We have experienced the same problem with our Bessacarr E415. The door automatically locked behind us with the keys inside! We had to break into our van as the oven was on. We are having a new door fitted and will ensure we keep keys on us at all times even if we are sitting outside in future. I think it is a common fault with this model van. I suggest you replace the lock as you could be faced with a larger bill for a new door!!
Hi Steve,
Thanks very much for this information and advice. Let’s hope it prevents others from having the same problem that you had.
Kind Regards,
Steve
