Be careful where you have the switch fitted. Ours was in the battery box but when it was up against the fence we couldn't get at it. Had to have it moved to under one of the seating areas inside the caravan.Solved the problem.

We also ordered an Enduro via Alan's Caravans. It came the next day.

We fitted it in a couple of hours, with the aid of Wizzard's pictures. It was all relatively straightforward really - just a matter of clamping it on the chassis.

Like everyone else states, it's a great piece of equipment - I dread to think how I would get the caravan into the storage site without it and it certainly makes setting up alot easier.

A new electric box and remote control arrived last Friday. Only having a week left to BH wkend OH had a word with the engineer and fitted it himself and it is now working! This gave us more time if we needed to send for yet another part if it still wasn't right. We didn't want to wait until Wednesday for the engineer to come and then be told 'you need another part as it's still not working' and loose our BH weekend away. OH asked if it was the 'norm' for the Powrtouch to break as often as ours has and he said no, we must have bought a 'Friday afternoon' one.

I've got Johm Wrigley coming Wednesday to replace the control box and remote on my Powrmover, fingers crossed this fixes the problem.

Johns a lovely bloke and he only lives round the corner from me.

I better make sure we have enough tea if i want it repaired though !!!

Hi Wizard, yeah I thought it may help to have an alternative to ebay from the same guys ... I personally contacted the company rather than use ebay as I only live around the corner from them and could collect :)

Having just read about e-go motor mover in the Caravan Club Mag. I down loaded the fitting instructions from their website and it does not seem to difficut to fit.

But has anyone got any experience of this product?

Info would be much appreciated.

Probably would have been better looking on the thread in the towing section on the e-go. You might be accused of necrophilia reopening this old thread!
