Help plse, anyone got the email addy or phone no. for Powertouch motor movers  ?

Have just fitted new battery to van and thought I would just check all was ok with the mover and found the nearside roller wouldn't function. Other side is fine but I don't want to be going round and round inn circles. Thought I'd email them as its a weekend only to find I've left all the docs for it out in the van at the storage .Ta  Mick

I'd just check the connections at the motor which doesn't work, then check them at the control box. They might have dropped off.

The key to this is that one roller works ok, so it shouldn't be a problem with the battery connection or remote box etc.

Check all the connections and if that doesn't cure it, swap the connections over on the control board. Now if the opposite motor stops working you can be fairly sure the control board is at fault, if it does work then the motor or more likely it's brushes are at fault
