Hi guys, I am looking for some opinions. We have a 2011 pilote which has scault electrics, 2x90 amp batteries and is plugged into the mains at home.
I nipped in earlier to drain the hot water and tanks etc and noticed on the NASA unit that with lights on the batteries were discharging at 5 amps and nominally showed 12.2v or 51% on the nasa unit. Given i am plugged in I expected more like 13.4 v. I ran the engine and the batteries were taking 13 amps.
If the charger has packed in or a fuse blown its not quite as easy to tell because we have 280 watt of solar.
I have seen something similar on a Hymer where it cycles the batteries and you have to flatten them to get t to charge. Any views?
