Maybe by sharing my predicament I can stop others doing the same. This happened last year using the Eurotunnel, they insist on gas being turned off, which I had done, but to keep food and beer chilled I switched my fridge manually to 12V, so while moving around would keep fridge temp down. What I never thought about was when on the train I do not remove my key from ignition, maybe our MH was wired up wrongly, but even with ignition set to off, but key still in for radio / MP3, the fridge must have stayed on 12V because when we stopped in France we stayed stopped on train!! Control panel confirmed cab battery at 11.4V.
Sorry to those behind who had to reverse off!! Many thanks to Euro Tunnel who were brill and jump started us, I expected to be pulled off and left. We do at least have a solar panel so we had a chance of a recharge before dark!!
