This looks as if it could be a very helpful web site and some time when I have more time I'd like to log on and have a wander around. However, I came across it because I was getting cross and frustrated with the green lump of metal called a Timberland Freedom sitting on the drive. Before I get to the reason I signed on a bit about us.
Both of us are retired. Travelled a fair bit - usually by air. Just back from Morocco (November) and Thailand February. Nothing planned outside the UK this year with the green machine, although last year year being our first we did venture to Greece for 3 months, and plan for Spain/Portugal next year. However, can I now get to my problem :-
It is probably something simple i/we need to do, but all the batteries (leisure and vehicle) don't seem to hold a charge. All the batteries are under 1 year old. We charged them all last week - today nothing. Yet the computer showed 14v last week.
We have a solar panel and thought it would keep the leisure batteries topped up - but that does not seem to be happening.
Having read the book Timberland gave us we are now trying to charge it with the computer panel on and the leisure battery icon selected. This now shows a 'c' beside the amp reading., for charging, as opposed to the 'd' for discharge. It is all unfamiliar to me though, and it has charged in the past without me selecting either vehicle or leisure. Can anyone tell me what I need to do.
I am afraid Patience is not my middle name, so while my husband is out today I have been 'fiddling'!
Thanks in advance
