There is no indication that our roof mounted solar panel is supplying any power to the leisure batteries. If I press the solar power amps button on the Energy Management System panel it always displays 0 amps. Would this be correct if we were on ehu and the leisure batteries were fully charged? Should I disconnect the ehu and then check if the solar panel contributes any power? There is an electrical gizmo mounted in the wardrobe that has 2 green led's - the top one has a full battery symbol next to it. The lower one has a discharged battery symbol next to it and it's led is dimmer and flickering. Is this right?

IF you are on hookup and your batteries don't need charge as they are full then the regulator wont send it
come off hook up deplete some charge and try again.

You can also get a multi meter and test the wires coming from the panels BEFORE the regulator to check they arse sending voltage
