Finding the right spare parts for your Thetford hob or cooker doesn't have to be a hassle. We stock genuine replacement parts for all major Thetford cooking appliances including Aspire, Caprice, Duplex, Triplex, Argent, and Midi Prima models. From simple burner caps to complex thermocouple assemblies, we've got the parts you need to keep your caravan or motorhome kitchen running smoothly. Most repairs are straightforward - replacing a faulty thermocouple or cracked glass lid can save you hundreds compared to buying a new cooker. Thetford cookers are fitted as standard in thousands of UK caravans and motorhomes, but they do suffer from common issues like burners that won't stay lit, failed ignition switches, and cracked glass lids. The good news is that most problems can be sorted with the right genuine spare part and a bit of DIY know-how. We stock everything from individual thermocouples (the most common failure point) to complete burner assemblies, ignition electrodes, glass lid microswitch kits, and replacement glass panels for models going back decades. Our extensive parts database covers everything from current Aspire MK2 models to vintage Caprice and Duplex cookers, with technical diagrams and fitting guides available for most repairs. Bear in mind that any gas work should only be carried out by qualified engineers - whilst many electrical components like switches and thermocouples are DIY-friendly, gas connections require professional certification. We offer same-day dispatch on most items with next-day UK delivery available. Prefer to find your Thetford cooker or hob quickly using our dropdown menu: Click Here

Frequently Asked Questions
My Thetford hob burners light but won't stay lit when I release the knob - what's wrong?Burners that light but go out immediately when you release the control knob are almost always caused by faulty thermocouples. These safety devices detect the flame and keep the gas valve open - when they fail, the gas supply cuts off. Thermocouples are the most common Thetford spare part we sell, with different models requiring specific part numbers like SSPA0675 for Aspire, Argent and Cocina models. The glass lid on my Thetford cooker has cracked or shattered - can I get a replacement?Yes, we stock replacement glass lids for most Thetford cooker models including Caprice (SSPA0234 clear or SSPA0233 black), Aspire, and Duplex models. Glass lid failures are common, often caused by thermal shock from closing the lid too soon after cooking. Replacement lids come in clear or tinted options. Check your model number carefully as dimensions vary - Caprice lids are 490mm x 445mm while other models differ.My Thetford oven won't light but the hob works fine - what could be the problem?If your hob works but the oven won't light, first check that the glass lid is fully raised - Thetford cookers have a safety feature that cuts gas to the oven when the lid is down. Other common causes include blocked oven burner jets (food debris or insects), faulty oven thermocouples, or problems with the glass lid microswitch (part SSPA0600). Some models also have separate gas isolator valves that may have been accidentally turned off. If there's spark but no gas, it's usually a blocked jet or microswitch issue.The ignition button on my Thetford hob isn't working - do you stock replacement switches?Yes, we stock genuine Thetford ignition switches including the popular SSPA0381 hob ignition switch (33mm x 13mm, black) used on most Thetford models. We also stock complete electrode kits and microswitch assemblies. If you can hear clicking but no spark, the problem is usually the electrode; if there's no clicking at all, it's typically the ignition switch that needs replacing.How do I find the right thermocouple for my specific Thetford cooker model?Thermocouple part numbers vary significantly between Thetford models. Check your cooker's data plate for the exact model number (e.g., Aspire CK13000, Caprice MK3, etc.). Common thermocouples include SSPA0675 (Aspire/Argent/Cocina), SSPA0680-0686 series (various Aspire models), and SSPA0150 (Caprice/Triplex kit). Thermocouples are typically 250-650mm long and some models use coaxial types. If you're unsure, send us your model number and we'll identify the correct thermocouple - fitting the wrong one can cause safety issues.My Thetford hob worked fine in summer but won't light properly in cold weather - why?Cold weather affects LPG gas pressure, particularly if you're using autogas (a propane/butane mix) where butane can remain liquid below 0°C. This reduces gas flow and makes ignition difficult. The issue is usually with the gas supply rather than the cooker itself. Try switching to pure propane in winter, check your regulator isn't icing up, and allow more time for gas pressure to build up. Some Thetford models are also sensitive to cold and may need the control knobs held down longer to heat the thermocouples sufficiently.Can I repair my Thetford cooker myself or do I need a qualified engineer?Simple electrical components like ignition switches and glass lids can often be replaced by competent DIYers without touching gas connections. However, any work involving gas pipes, burner removal, or internal gas components must be carried out by Gas Safe registered engineers to maintain safety and warranty coverage. Thermocouple replacement is also an issue as whilst the electrical connection is simple, accessing them often requires removing the hob which involves gas disconnection. When in any doubt, use a qualified technician.Do you stock spare parts for older Thetford models like Caprice and Duplex cookers?Yes, our extensive parts database includes spare parts for vintage Thetford models going back many years, including Caprice MK1-3, Duplex MK3/4, Triplex, and early Spinflo models. Many older models share common components like thermocouples, burner caps, and control knobs. Whilst some very specific parts may be discontinued, we can often supply updated equivalents or suggest suitable alternatives. Glass lids and specialised components for older models do become harder to source but we maintain good stock levels of the most commonly needed parts.What's the difference between genuine Thetford parts and compatible alternatives?Genuine Thetford spare parts are manufactured to exact specifications and come with warranty coverage, whilst compatible parts may fit but often use different materials or dimensions that can affect performance and safety. This is particularly important for safety-critical components like thermocouples and gas valves where precise operation is essential. Genuine parts also maintain your cooker's warranty and comply with gas safety regulations. We only supply authentic Thetford spares verified through our direct parts database to guarantee compatibility and safety.
