12v Circuit Hymer B594 1996 (1 Viewer)

The cable is crimped into a male pin which then clips into the connector block and is held in place by barbs. Once pushed in, they cannot be pulled out again without the correct removal tool !!!!!

Regarding the switch on the right of the 230V inlet, I'm not entirely sure of its function. On my EBL99 it deactivates some of the internal relays and effectively switches off the EBL, but even with it off, the batteries are still charged if 230v is supplied. Looking at the circuit diagram you uploaded last night, on the EBL104, the switch appears to isolate the 230v in-feed. Another question for Udo perhaps?

Many thanks for the info. I've managed to resolve the issues. My EBL is working fine after all. While it would be nice to have a 15amp charger, my 10amp is just about OK for my batteries which need about 7amp.

I already have a solar controller so I will hold off wiring the panel into the unit until I decide on how well my 100w panel performs. But thanks for the wiring tips and your other observations,that will come in very handy when the time comes.

And now the embarrassing bit. The problem was the batteries never got a proper full charge to start with. I stupidly assumed they came fully charged and didn't check until I'd used them for a while. The journeys I've had up till now just weren't enough to get them fully charged. Basic error!

That's a great tip, cheers!
