Went to the MH today at the storage and tried to start the engine, but battery is flat. Battery looks like it has been there for ever so may be kaputt. Don't have any power for charging at the storage so will have to remove it to charge. I am thinking that I might as well just put a new one in but I am concerned about how to do it safely as the van is fitted with a solar panel and a battery master. I know I should remove the fuse and panel input wires from the solar controller first but thereafter not sure.
The van is an A class Hymer with the battery right inside the engine bay on the nearside which with the restricted access makes it really awkward to get in and out. It weighs about 22kg so liable to rip my shoulders out which are already shot so has anybody else done it and how did you lift it in and out?
