Hymer LT95 panel Q

[D.ten]

Hi All.

Needed to change the van battery, got a suggested varta battery removed driver seat, fitted batter no issues there. Took van out today and noticed the LT95 panel.showing red ( below 11v) for the van battery, just wanted to know if I've not reset something or missed something here. Thought swapping the battery would have been fairly straightforward.
Cheers in advance.

Forgot to add that when I start the engine and swith the fridge to run on battery mode, it's flashing which suggests it's not getting power from the battery ( it normally only flashes in battery mode when I stop the engine)

Check the fuses by the battery there will be a 50 amp and a 2 amp. The EBL won't work if the 2 amp fuse is blown and the EBL controls the fridge operation on 12v.
If no luck check the 50 amp & 20 amp fuses by the starter battery, 20 amp is the fridge fuse.
When the engine is running fridge takes power from the starter battery, with the engine stopped fridge takes power from the habitation battery.

As Lenny HB says, check the 20A fuse next to the starter battery. That wire supplies the fridge 12V heater element when engine is running. When stopped, it is used to measure the starter battery voltage, and to trickle-charge the starter battery when on hookup.
