Hi take the simple route and remove the battery ,charge it overnight ,test it, leave a couple of days re-test it.If no v/drop battery ok fit back into van,so then you need to then play with switches in van

Hi gonewiththewind.
If it is a lead acid sealed battery you will find that the individual cell plugs are simply covered with a plastic sticker of some kind. If you peel this off you will then have access to the plugs. (Where there's a will there's a way).

It says on the battery "Sealed For Life" . No lid to flick of, assume its filled and then sealed.

Hi,
No, it will not be a lid on a sealed battery, but will probably be a sticker over the battery top surface.
If you rub over the top with something hard you will probably be able to produce indentations where the plugs are (like taking a brass rubbing). If this does not work
I will be very surprised.
Hope this helps, I hate planned obsolescence.

Ps. See Beware Courier Delivery of Batteries!
This refers to doing similar to a new battery which had spilt acid in transit

Sorry about the delay in giving a progress report but been away and not much to report.
Have tried a number of the suggestion but still none the wiser. Main problem is I have a back problem and the battery is stuck under the seat and I cannot work out how to get it out looks like I have to remove the swivel seat so most of my check have been conducted hanging upside down trying to reach the terminals with the meter.
The battery position gives me great extra space for my winter long johns but would prefer to leave them at home if it meant I could get to the battery (unless someone can tell me different)
Have booked in at the garage, at least it made them think when they suggested this or that and I could say have check that and the result was........ made it sound like I know what I an doing so thanks to everyone it will make a difference when dealing with the garage on the day (no blinding me with science, actually they will but I now know when to nod in the right places)
