It\'s rather cold in here !!

After having copious amounts of beer in the Kings Head (Lymington) last night my fuzzy brain guided my wobbly legs in the direction of the boat instead of home!. After successfully getting onboaord I flashed up the Eberspacher and within minutes the place was just like home. Woke up this morning (with one helluva headache!) and thought best I put the heating on again otherwise bits of my body may well start turning blue and begin to fall off..........but the Eberspacher was having none of it.
The thermostat/control/switch has only 2 settings....switch to the right a green light comes on and a fan operates..switch to the left ...a red light comes on and the unit should ignite after about 40 seconds...................but it doesn't !!!
Does anyone have any ideas as to what may have gone wrong????. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

I had trouble with mine last year, turned out that there was not enough juice in the batteries, a quick charge up and it was OK. Worth checking before you start ripping it to bits.

I'm no expert but I once read that they are very sensitive to battery condition...... Iain

Almost certainly battery voltage too low

Thanks guys (and gal !!). Batteries could be suspect....................I have not had the chance to use the boat properly for about 6 weeks or so...........
