...gone back in and the dealer say the battery tests fine and they have conducted a test drive. the test drive lasted just under 8 minutes (the tracker tells all lol) but this time they found some codes mentioning the Can Bus and low voltage. They said “they have reconfigured some settings amd...
Grasping at straws here but could there be a tracker fitted? They often include functionality to monitor starter battery voltage as well as to send a notification when the starter battery is disconnected. Even if the monitoring subscription lapses the tracker will usually remain connected and...
I can't find any info about my tracker - anything relating to it has been lost/mislaid over the last 5 years. Now I use a trickle charger from the solar setup to keep the vehicle battery sweet.
...- pretty sure AF were one of the ones who said I had to be insured through them before taking an AV policy. I’m not in a cheap zone and no tracker but am parked on a drive & Mrs on insurance.
AF told me my quote was high because of area - which I queried as it’s not in the top 10 areas for...
Actually you're right, @Salty Spuds it's using 24Ah a day at an amp average draw. I originally ran the figures at 0.5amp but then noticed a tracker and a dash cam - so it's likely more.
I was told the same by just kampers then it turned out the insurance with the tracker was more expensive than without! I wonder whether it’s more of an exercise in getting people to commit to a yearly contract on the tracker.
It depends what else is connected to the battery and drawing power when the van is shut down. It sounds like you have a tracker, which will draw current. Anything else ?

What's that £200 tracker @Ali-G ? It makes sense for future years insurance to get something sorted soon. Sell some of that surplus gear you have stashed away?
True to be fair. I’m actually going to attack it on my own. I will be calling on you at some point no doubt for future installs. Wouldn’t be too hard to stay at a site local to you and book in ;)
I know people don't like trackers but I do like mine. It has a map with location and the ability to immoblise the van remotely. Metatrak S 7.
The one time I started the vehicle without the fob, the most bored sounding bloke rang me immediately to check.
...be picking up my 1st camper van and would like to add a Ghost immobiliser and deadlocks to the van. Is this overkill as I’ve had a Skorpion tracker fitted, does anybody have recommendations for installers of the above in the Surrey/M25 area, any advice would be most helpful to this camper...
