Powrtouch classic motor mover control unit issues

Our motor mover stopped working on the l/h side. I switched the l/h cables in the control unit to the r/h hand terminals and the r/h cables to the l/h terminals resulting in the l/h side working bow, and the r/h side not working. That would seem to me to indicate a faulty control unit.
Are these units repairable or is there somewhere I can get a reconditioned unit please.
Any help, information and, or advice would be much appreciated.

Thank you.

Are these any use to you? (I've never used either so it isn't a personal recommendation)

I have used A&R Electronic Developments, and it was excellent service in every way. Good guidance, super fast turn round, good value and the results are still working well.
No connection other than as an impressed user of their services,

Thank you to everyone who responded and thank you for your various suggestions. I have contacted Powrtouch and I am awaiting their reply although it would seem that one of the control unit repair options that have been mentioned will be my eventual course of action.
Thanks again.

You won't know, until you want to go to another seasonal pitch, and you might be out of warranty by then.
This is the only Seasonal Adult Touring park we are interested in but the warranty on this caravan is 15 months and we might extend it .(y)

When you have it serviced, make sure the AWS tech does a service to the motor mover as well.
At present it having a full service and damp check by the caravan dealer but when it due next service it will be AWS thanks for your input very much appreciated(y)

Remember you specifically have to ask for a motor mover service/check, it is not on a habitation check.
