Bailey Tracker Monitor & Caravan Alarm
(2010 Model Year, Pegasus)
Sourced from Bailey's 2010 model year owner's manual for the Pegasus range. If your caravan is a different age or range, some details — such as the exact control panel brand or chassis-component generation actually fitted — may not match. Always cross-check against the handbook that came with your specific caravan.

Master Troubleshooting & Diagnostics Matrix
| Error Code / Indicator | Symptom / Meaning | Possible Cause | Step-by-Step DIY Fix | Suggested Actions |
|---|---|---|---|---|
N/A | Pushing the caravan around a car park sets the siren off, but Tracker itself doesn't send any alert. | The tracker monitor requires movement over a longer period (or specific acceleration of the caravan) before sending an alert, preventing false alerts. | Ensure the system is properly armed and allowed to complete its arming sequence (45 seconds for alarm, further 5-minute delay for the tracker monitor). Note that triggering the alarm siren alone does not generate a tracker alert; the caravan must experience movement/acceleration over the required period. | DIY Safe |
N/A | Set the alarm, went for a drive, siren went off, but Tracker did not telephone. | Started driving before the 5-minute tracking arming time had expired. | Ensure you wait for the full 5-minute arming delay to pass after arming the system before moving or driving the caravan. | DIY Safe |
N/A | Alarm keeps sounding and Tracker does not telephone. | The siren going off doesn't by itself set Tracker's own alert going - Tracker only triggers when it detects the caravan actually accelerating. | Understand that the alarm system and the stolen vehicle recovery system operate as two separate systems within one. Check the caravan for actual movement or towing events required to trigger the tracker. | DIY Safe |
N/A | Tracker battery goes flat or system stops working due to a disconnected leisure battery. | Leisure battery has been disconnected, removed, or left flat, depleting the internal Tracker battery (which lasts approximately two weeks without a leisure battery). | Make sure the leisure battery stays connected and topped up. Should it ever go flat or get disconnected, fit a charged replacement as soon as you can and plug the caravan into a mains hook-up for a full 24 hours - that's what recharges the Tracker's own battery. | DIY Safe |
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I arm and disarm the Tracker Monitor alarm system, and how does it protect my caravan?
Press the remote control button once to arm the system - you'll hear two beeps from the siren. The main alarm itself becomes active after about 45 seconds, but the separate Tracker recovery unit takes a further five minutes to arm on top of that, so don't set off towing the caravan straight away or Tracker won't get an alert.
Once armed, moving, towing, or lifting the caravan onto a trailer will set the siren going for up to five minutes (it can also be triggered by the built-in motion sensor). To turn it off again, just press the remote button once more - a single beep confirms it's disarmed, and it'll cut the siren immediately if it was already sounding.
It helps to think of this as two separate systems bundled together: the audible alarm, and the Tracker stolen-vehicle recovery service, which only kicks in once it picks up genuine acceleration or movement, not just the siren going off on its own. The unit can't be moved across to a different caravan if you change vehicles, but it's usable throughout the UK (England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland) as well as France and Spain.
