i have a flow master digitcal  with a built in charger  a while ago the charger packed in was just working it as flow controler but this keeps starting and cutting out would you say its on its way out ,  i have also have a dial flowmaster had this longer and thats still going strong

I sent mine off to Pure Freedom even though it was way out of warranty and they sent it off to be fixed and returned it to me all for £45 odd.
Took ages though and I'd already bought another but I know have a spare which I should have bought ages ago. Also fitted a bypass to make double sure I can always work.

Sounds expensive

[traps7]

Cheaper than a new one.

It does sound as it is on its way out, There are any number of reasons for this, as for the charger it sounds like the relay may have gone or even be moisture damage to the board.
If you wanted it repaired the suggestion would be to return it to PF. The price shown by Traps gives you an approx idea of what it would cost.
Sounds like you also have an older V3 analogue nice to hear that it is still going well. As for replace or repair - one advantage of replacing would be the new control would have a 12 month warranty.

tried it again today came on worked for 10 mins and goes of again if i dissconect wires from battery it starts again for 10 mins , looks like a new one in order cheers  for the answers

[landy2]

worked with it again today all day no problem must of been a air lock fingers crossed

[traps7]

I thought you meant the display was going out or something when you said it kept cutting out.

[landy2]

well yes display went of and would not work the pump but last two days worked ok so all i can put it down to was air lock or maybe low voltage on battery but it was not that low but fitted new split charger so maybe that helped    :

[Ian Sheppard]

Was the controller shutting down? or was the pump shutting down?

The controller will shut down if voltage below 11V is detected although you would a;so see a BAT warning at 11.5 or below.

With a spilt relay the leisure battery will only charge up while the engine and alternator is running, as a general rule you will not replace all the current used in a day while driving between jobs. I would suggest that even with a split relay you should charge your batteries every  2 - 3 days.
