Hello. Firstly I have to point out that I am not an electrical engineer, or even particularly interested in electronics, but I have a particular query that I thought members of a group like this could help me with.
I own a caravan and it is fitted with a thing called a motor mover. This is a device that moves the caravan wheels, and helps manouver it. It is operated by a remote control, so it is like a massive remote control car.
Today remote was indicating that the 9v battery that powers it needs replacing. Now this is the thing, I have tried four brand new batteries right out of their packaging and not one of them will power up the remote. If I put the original back in, then it will power up (green light) and then flash red lights to indicate low power. All the new batteries are alkaline like the original. I have tried standard and pro power.
I will be calling the units manufacturer on Monday.
Cheers
