Essential Motorhome Battery Maintenance For Winter

[@PoshcatsCamping]

We have a duel camera on our Swift and it had an intermittent blue screen. Turned out to be a poor connection at the dashboard end. Cheap fix for us. Our leisure batteries are coming up to 3 years old. We are watching and waiting but with two in situ they seem to last longer than just one lone battery. 😁 Trev

Poshcats Camping I hope our blue screen problem is down to a poor connection. As for the batteries I’m not sure how old they are as they came with the motorhome when we bought it in April. I’m going to speak to Brownhills on Monday about the camera as I think it maybe covered by the warranty fingers crossed 🤞 Happy Christmas 🎄 to you. Kev

If you update your batteries buy two identical new batteries at the same time. You may know this but don’t try to get away with one new one as the life of it will be impacted by the old one.

Poshcats No, I didn’t know this, makes sense though. Thanks for the advice.

Our reverse camera did same with blue screen, , OK one day, put in reverse & picture faded to a blue screen, ended up having to have new screen replaced under warranty by dealer, after a very long wait for delivery from Chausson

Thank you for your comment. Our screen is permanently blue. I’ll contact Brownhills on Monday and see what they can do. Will keep you posted.
