Leisure & Starter Battery Help, Nuneaton | battery replacement
Nuneaton motorhome callouts — split charge relays, leisure banks and starter batteries diagnosed on-site. Battery Replacement, 24/7.
Split charge systems add a third variable. If the relay or DC-DC charger has failed, the leisure bank stops being replenished while driving, and the first sign is usually a fridge that dies overnight.
Battery gone in Nuneaton? Rather than driving to a fitting bay and queuing, we come to the vehicle — driveway, workplace car park, or roadside on the M6 J3 corridor.
Stock on the van covers every popular fitment: standard flooded 063/096/075/100, EFB start-stop, and AGM 019/017 for premium and stop-start applications.
Storage, standing and split charging
Access matters with larger vehicles — we plan for restricted CV10 streets and compound gates before setting off.
Locally that means Nuneaton itself plus the neighbourhoods that feed into it, with access via M6 J3 and A5 and a practical radius reaching Bedworth (~4 mi) and Bulkington (~4 mi).
Owners we help
Owners of converted vans with self-installed leisure systems that have stopped charging.
Domestically, Victorian terraces and post-war estates dominate around here, which shapes how these jobs are accessed and worked.

Two battery systems, one visit
Starter and leisure banks tested independently at your Nuneaton address or storage site. Same fixed pricing whether it is a battery replacement at 9am or 3am, anywhere in Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council.
Testing two systems properly
- Leisure batteries are deep-cycle by design and are tested on a cyclic profile rather than a cranking profile.
- Split charge relays and DC-DC chargers are checked for output while the engine runs.
- Memory saver used during change so radio codes, seat memories and ECU adaptations are preserved
- Battery Replacement work here is judged against the vehicle's own specification rather than a generic pass mark.
Motorhome battery questions
Q.What do you do with my old battery?
It goes back to a licensed recycler. Around 99% of a lead-acid battery is recyclable. No landfill, and we don't charge for disposal.
Q.My engine starts but the fridge and lights are dead. Which battery is it?
The leisure bank, or the split charge system that feeds it. The starter battery is clearly fine if the engine turns over.
Q.Can I use a starter battery as a leisure battery?
Not sensibly. Starter batteries hate deep discharge and will fail quickly in a habitation role; leisure batteries are built for exactly that cycling.
Q.Do you attend storage compounds?
Yes, provided you can arrange access. Tell us the gate arrangements when you book so the visit is not wasted.
Q.Do you cover Nuneaton and the CV10 area for this?
Yes. Nuneaton is inside our routine coverage from Oldbury via M6 J3, roughly 9 miles from Coventry. We also cover the surrounding neighbourhoods on the same run.
Q.How do I know my battery needs replacing rather than jumpstarting?
If it's over 4 years old and going flat repeatedly, or the CCA on a load tester reads under 60% of rated, it's replacement time. Jumpstarting will only get you a day or two.
Recent leisure vehicle jobs
Recent job nearby: a motorhome in Nuneaton with a perfect starter battery and a leisure bank at 9V. Split charge relay had failed — habitation side was never charging on the move.
Recent job nearby: a converted campervan off M6 J3 where a self-installed DC-DC charger was wired to a switched live and only worked with the ignition on.
Where we attend
As a district hub, Nuneaton is covered alongside its surrounding neighbourhoods, so a motorhome and leisure vehicles call from any of them routes to the same engineer.
Why this is safe to book
- Larger vehicles and restricted-access compounds are routine work, not an exception.
- Old batteries removed and recycled on every battery replacement.
How the visit runs
- 1
Vehicle lookup
By reg on the phone — we confirm the exact OEM battery spec before quoting.
- 2
Fixed all-in price
Battery, fitting, coding, recycling, warranty — one number on the phone.
- 3
Driveway fit
Memory saver in, old battery out, new one in and terminals torqued to spec.
- 4
Testing two systems properly
Starter and leisure banks are tested independently, because a healthy engine battery tells you nothing about the habitation side.

The short version
Starter, leisure and split charge — check all three and a motorhome electrical fault stops being a mystery. That is the whole job: diagnose it properly, fix it once, and explain what caused it.
