Hi everyone.

Just a question for advise and help, I have a single axle van with a Truma Motormover, recently I stupidly allowed my battery to run flat, expensive mistake! Now my Motormover isn't responding, the remote control switches on, the motorbox recieves a signal
but the two don't talk to each other and won't engage.

Anyone else had this problem and can anyone helpHappy

    Found the following that may help:

    CHECK THAT THE DRIVE ROLLERS ARE NOT APPLIED

    Check that the safety plug is in

    Press the reset button and hold down - red LED flashes slowly - after approx 5 seconds the LED starts to flash rapidly. Release the reset button then WITHIN 10 SECONDS HOLD DOWN THE REVERSE BUTTON ON THE HANDSET, SIMULTANEOUSLY SWITCHING ON THE HAND SET.

    The handset and  the control unit are synchronised to each other. After successful synchronisation the Red LED flashes rapidly



    TRUMA TROUBLE SHOOTING



    1 Are the remote batteries in good condition

    2 Is the caravan safety plug in 

    3 Is the caravan battery in good condition



    Perform a reset (approx 10 secs)



    Remove and re-connect the safety socket

    OR

    Move isolating switch to "OFF" then back to "ON"

    OR

    Briefly disconnect battery



    When the motor mover fails it gives off a diagnostic blinking code on the relay board, if you can locate this for us and tell us the sequence of 8 short and long flashes we will then be able to help diagnose the fault with the mover.

     

    You should be able to see the red light in the top left hand corner on the relay board

    We have a Truma euro mover on our 1996 Ace Jubilee Herald, The motor mover was working correctly when used 2-3 years ago.  Have ensured the leisure  battery is fully charged and new AAA batteries have been fitted in the mover handset. 

     When the handset  is switched on the control unit clicks twice and the green light flashes briefly then the red fault light flashes 3 times, pauses  and repeats the 3 flashes. The info on the unit says there is a short on the chassis.

    How is this fixed ? Can this fault be fixed by ourselves or does it require a Trums repair engineer to correct this fault ?
