Hi can any one help me I have a trauma single motor mover and the fault is saying current sence . Wot can I do to fix this problem. Thank you
Hi welcome to the Forum. Sorry to hear of your problem with the motor mover but you haven’t given enough information to enable assistance. What model Truma, age ? The fault description you have given doesn’t help at all, what is “ current sence”. Nowhere do you mention battery size in your post yet the title of the thread included battery size. Is the battery new or old is it charged? For tests on a mover battery size isn’t that important. Please could you give a bit more information and a description of the problem.Hi can any one help me I have a trauma single motor mover and the fault is saying current sence .

Like Clive I cannot understand what you mean by current sense and think it might be an error.
If it helps the mover makers suggest a battery of 110 amps if this is your question. If you have a lightweight caravan and only use the mover on the flat or short distances you should be able to get away with a smaller one.
Batteries are graded A. B & C according to their use.
For a motor mover you need a category B if you can find one, or A for the mover and use off grid. C is for those who use the battery only on sites with a hook up and no mover. Again with a lightweight caravan and no great use of the mover a C could work.

For clarity here, the battery capacity is rated in AH [Ampere hours], not Amps. Many of our caravan's so called Leisure batteries, will be "starter technology" derived, offering some 600 Amps, irrespective of their AH capacity, within sensible limits.
Most Leisure batteries will last at least 5 years.
Numax as an example, 80AH costs £75. 120AH £115. I appreciate £40 is £40 but unless you are really strapped for cash the more powerful AH battery will only cost you £8 pa over the five years. A glass of wine these days!
Why not just get the 120Ah? I agree with JTQ other than the initial start up the running drain on the battery from the mover is very small.
Not if the dealers see how many "problems" that have cropped up in the last three months, should have gone to Coachman. 🤗😎True John. Since Covid my caravan has appreciated in value so maybe more appreciation than inflation🙀🙀
I do not trust the "Green windows" on batteries. It is a pretty unreliable device.Hi otherclive, yes the battery was bought new and the window on the battery is showing green indicates battery is good. ...
