My Truma Motor Mover II Version 1 works very well but sometimes one side does not, any ideas. Also there is some up and down movement on the unit that holds the motor, is this normal.

Cheers

I had the same problem and found it to be the spade end that connects the cable to the motor had corroded so I cut the old one off and fitted a new spade end also cleaned the spade on the motor and applied some grease before pulling the rubber cover back over
