  • Vital gadget to keep 13 pin sockets working properly

    If you have a car/caravan combination with a 13-pin socket set-up, there will be times when the inner and outer parts of the car socket get out of alignment, meaning you won't be able to insert the 13 pin plug from the caravan. This little tool allows you to quickly re-align the socket pins. Every caravanner's toolkit should have one!

  • Caravan 13 pin alighment / keeper tool

    Several sellers seem to have the identical product and this was way the cheapest. The 13 pin caravan plug, while being much more secure in use can become difficult to fit if the plug has become misaligned. This 'keeper' has a similar twist fit to the socket, with a neoprene gasket in the base to keep secure, so is a great way to store the plug when not in use or realign. I am intending to mount mine on the A-frame cowling to serve the purpose. As seen in the photo it has 3 screwholes, although I shall likely use silicone to stick in place instead. Don't know why these are not included with new vans or at least in retailers 'starter kits' as cheap effective and invaluable!

  • Gets your 13 pin plug internals back in line so easily.

    I bought this because my 13 pin plug wouldn't fit in the socket one day, the inside section had twisted out-of-line with the outside of the plug. Until I managed, with a great deal of faffing with a screwdriver to get it back the way it should be we couldn't move the caravan and go on holiday. I had heard of such as this on forum posting and searched for one so that I wouldn't be in such a predicament again. This one is a spare in case I mislay the original, they are fantastic at realigning a twisted plug plus the keep the weather and spiders out when parked.

  • Really useful accessory.

    I found this tool made realigning my 13 pin caravan plug quick and easy so I will no longer need to worry about not being able to connect the caravan if the plug becomes misaligned.

  • It works!

    I honestly didn’t think this tool would realign my 13-pin caravan plug (which wouldn’t fit into the car socket any longer). However, it took me a minute to figure out how to use it (it doesn’t come with instructions) and it worked perfectly! I’m so glad to have this useful item with me in the car now.

  • Simple but Brilliant!!

    Very simple but incredibly effective at what it does, ie, keeping the outer sleeve/locking ring in exactly the place you need it!! Also keeps some of the Gunge out of the socket, helping to ensure that it operates when needed. This is all the more necessary now that the towbar electrics have been included in the MOT test!!!!

  • Simple but effective

    Really easy to use and works very well. Saves having to take the plug apart and re-align that way.

  • Low cost but valuable if needed

    Simpler than having to take the connection apart (which is what I had to do before purchasing this piece of kit.) Hopefully I won't need to use this, but if I do it should make re-alignment much easier.

  • Caravan or trailer plug protector

    Simple but very effective. Totally waterproof to keep contacts clean and dry. Seems a little expensive for a small plastic item but it does the job well.
