Hi, have spoken to the dealer, Continental Motorhomes, today who said they are more than happy to replace the leisure battery if we think there is a problem with it.

We thankfully always use EHU's when we are onsite, the battery should have been fully charged up on our return from Eddies, via Warminster and Brecon, so the dealer thinks something might be draining it. The only thought we have had so far is that it's possible the stereo was left on perhaps in mute mode as when we plugged the electric in yesterday the stereo started blaring out music. To be sure we've now made sure it is def turned of and taken front panel off.

We've also checked that all the switches are off and the panel is off.

It has now been arranged that we will go away as planned next week (as the leisure battery is showing as charged now) as we don't need to use the battery as far as we are aware. When we return we won't hook up to the electric then check the battery each day to see if it goes down. If so it will go back to the dealer and they will replace the battery for us and see if they can establish what if anything is draining it.

Thanks to everyone for their replies.

Sounds like a good dealer and sound advice, enjoy Bala, hopefully the weather will be like it's been the last few days.

Have a good, safe trip.
