Any idea of the make and model of the control panel? Or is it specific to Eldiss?

The panel is made by BCA electronics. Distributed by Penine leisure (same group). Fitted by Elddis .It is a new control panel fitted under a used vehicle warranty (2017 model Encore 255) from a dealer. When first fitted in july the mains icon was displayed permanantly,hooked up or not!.Back to the dealer!. Now it its not displayed at all when hooked up! Its taken a while to come to my attention because i very rarely hook up to mains.( i use solar panels via 2 x105ah lithium leisure batteries). The dealer is giving me all sorts of excuses,i dont think they know what their doing. A bit long winded but all advice and help is much appreciated. Big Vern.

Sounds about right. :oops: I think practically every panel ever made shows the icon when hooked up but nothing when not hooked up.

Sorry….different panel to the one in our ‘van:(I only know when we’re hooked-up to the mains because the microwave clock is showing……. ;) (and the cable trailing from the back to the nearest bollard, of course!)

I know this is a shot in the dark and perhaps of no value to you what so ever, but is there a manual covering the control panel

Welcome.

Do you know the model number of the BCA control panel? As said above, a picture would help.

it will show on your Alde display not your control panel, your control panel is just for the 12 volt.

that’s how my 2016 Encore works.

This happened to us recently. No hook up symbol but all 240v stuff worked fine. Solar was charging batterie but the charger wasn’t. In fact it seemed like the opposite was happening somehow. Fitted new charger and all back to normal again.

Hi, Thanks for your reply. Are you aware your typing with your Caps Lock on which means everything is in upper case and regarded by most people as a form of shouting ! A simple mistake that I fell foul of a few years ago hence my knowledge of the subject LOL. Hope you get your query resolved. You will get lots of support on here if you have a problem. Some advice good and some useless. By the way you have posted a reply on my profile page rather than this tread ! No harm done though and in fairness it does take a little while getting used to how this forum works. Keep Safe,

I checked mine this morning and it doesn’t show the 240 only the water level symbol.
I best check the charger fuse.
