Hi all, a newbie to the site and in need of urgent advice. I have a 2003 Ace Award Transtar (with Jubilee spec interior). I have brought it back from storage to find that my plug-in-systems ltd ESM2 is no longer charging my battery when plugged into mains (the battery charges whilst on tow). I have contacted Newport Caravans but they are unable to supply a new unit and recommended contacting the manufacturer of van. I need to be able to get a new u it that I can plug in without having to replace cabling as I have got a clue there! I’m willing to pay an engineer to do it for me, but cannot get hold of anyone who isn’t fully booked up. Can anyone give any advice, please?? Thanks!

Recently purhased a 2109 Laser 675 and I am delighted with it, but....I have a fault that others may have experienced. When I switch on all of the lights in the lounge area I start to hear a fan within the power supply unit constantly stopping and starting. If I switch on all caravan lights the fan then runs constantly, Contacted the dealer and they sent a technician out who determined the fan was faulty and replaced it with a new one. The techician informed me that the fan is to keep the battery charger cool. This appeared to have fixed the fault but noticed this weekend that the stopping / starting issue has returned. I am sure all Coachman's are fitted with the same power supply unit, Does anyone know if this is a common fault? Has anyone experienced the same issue? Gary

I have moved my caravan to a secure storage site. I have a Phantom tracker alarm and although I can switch off the motion sensor the satellite signal remains live and gradually drains the battery. There is no electric hookup in the storage area, so the obvious solution would be a solar panel to keep the battery topped up. I would love some suggestions and hints from members who have solved this problem.

This seems the ideal thread to ask the question. ..... I recently bought our 1st van and have had it connected permanently on the drive. ... (During repairs) Had our 1st outing and all is 'cushty' no probs with the electrics at all. ... Upon return home re attached to mains feed from house. .. And after the immediate clean left it still plugged in. ... Went in to change the power switch on the fridge (didn't illuminate, but does now!) ;-) and found the battery meter was reading in the RED. . Upon putting a meter on the battery, found it was discharged. ..8. 6v (new battery as we'll!) found charger was only putting out 9v! So obviously diseased! My question is. .... What charger do I buy now???? The battery is only a 85Ah one so not massive! (But no motor movers or the like?) Help and advice appreciated. Mark

I would appreciate some advice on which charger to get for my 75AH leisure battery. The caravan will be in storage from Monday week and I have been advised to remove the battery and charge it once a month over the winter. Lots of £10-£20 chargers advertised on ebay but I am not sure of the charge rate or other specifications I need to look for in buying a charger so any advice would be most welcome. Thanks
