Project 2000 drop down bed: electricity failure?

[Roger Sponge]

Made up my drop down bed in my 2015 Burstner Ixeo Time. Put it up to ceiling for off next day. All good. Next night, wouldn’t come down. No panel lights on. Leisure battery had had some heavy use, but next morning after bed failure, seemed to have largely recovered.

Back home, hooked up to mains. Still no joy. Pressed Up button to see if that would reset it. Then Down button. Then both together. Still no joy. Nothing else apparently affected.

Any suggestions gratefully received. Unfortunately, am not electric techie.

Have you now fully charged the lesiure batteries? What voltage, have you got a multimeter?

You may well have to reset and reprogram the bed. The project 2000 bed is well known for this sort of behaviour.
Read the reprogram instructions.

Blown fuse?

Yes, battery fully charged after long run and then mains charging. After that I’m in electrical territory where I’m out of my depth! Thanks for replying.

Blown fuse?

I suspect it is.

Reset

On the control panel to the right of the lights, there is a small hole which is a reset. Press a pencil point firmly into that reset hole. Then, in between the up and down buttons, feel for a little raised bit. Press the raised bit and the up button at the same time and count to 7. Release and then press the up button only and hopefully the bed will work. If not, try and press the raised bit and the the down button together after the reset instead of the up button

Reset2
On our control panel, just to the right of the up button, there are two lights and a small hole. The lights have, one a triangle with an exclamation mark, next a spanner, and finally the hole has test written by it. Lower the bed a few centimetres down from the upper position and then stick a cocktail stick in the hole. The two lights next to the test hole will then light up briefly. Reset done. If the head end does not lower when you rise the bed in the morning then take the bed up as high as it will go without the head end touching the roof. Next do a reset, as described, then lower the bed until it stops at the normal point that head should have lowered, wait a second or two, then press the up button. The head should now lower and thereafter you can raise the bed to the normal day position.

Program

Enter in programming mode after having switched on the panel.

To enter the programming mode, hold the hidden button (between the button UP and DOWN) and the button UP for 7 seconds.

The green LED light with the symbol of the spanner switches on.

If it doesn’t, repeat the operation.

Put underneath the bed some supports able to hold the bed in the lowest position.

Press the button UP; the bed descends. Let it rest on the supports and keep pushing until the bed starts raising again.

Bring the bed up to its higher position and let it press the electric contact (limit switch).

Let the bed descend and start programming the positions (depending on the model of the bed can be 3 or 4 points).

Let the bed descend to the first position, press the hidden button plus the button DOWN.

The LED on the arrows will switch off and on again.

Repeat with this procedure for the next 2-3 points and the system will automatically quit the programming mode.

If you don't have a manual winding handle then as suggested 5mm allen key may fit.

I used to have a Project 2000 bed on my last MH, a Benimar. I never had an issue lowering unless it was a blown fuse. A weak battery is ok when lowering becasue it's effectively gravity lowering it. There are sometimes issues with the snsors on the track sticking and there is a reset which on the benimar was different to the one above but I can't remember what it was now! There was some kind of invisible button that you had to press along with some others in a sequence. My money is a fuse though which used to be a yellow 20A fuse in the Benimar.
