Battery for pump died

[danwyatt3412]

Today whilst using my facelift van system the battery died on me. It has a split relay so charges from the vans main battery. Do I need to manually charge the battery occasionally using a chargeer or is there another problem?

Cheers in advance for any replies.

How old are the batteries, how many hours do you work and how many miles do you drive a week.

Batteries are not very old, probably only work 5 or 6 hours 3 x per week. Not a massive amount of mileage. Was thinking that the miles I do may not be enough to keep it charged!

If you're doing a couple of houses and then driving a few minutes I would've thought you should be charging it enough. If you're spending a couple of hours without moving then either charge it or run the van whilst filling your tank.

You will need to bench charge your battery asap, a rule of thumb bench charge every night through the colder months and every other night whilst the weather is decent
