Vandoit Support

There may be times where your Vandoit goes through a period of non-use. Whether it be bringing it out of storage, non-use due to the busyness of life, etc., we want to make sure your Vandoit and all components are working correctly. Our customer support team put this Vandoit Operational Checklist to simplify the process of running through you van’s components.

Vandoit Operational Checklist

• Check under the hood for any loose connections or frayed wires (i.e. evidence of pests)
• Check tires for cracks or punctures and make sure they’re inflated to the proper pressures
• Make sure the backup camera is operational and all brake, turn and hazard signals are working
• View the roof to make sure solar panels are clean and to inspect for any disconnected wiring or damage
