NordEletettronica Conspiracy?

[Peregrinator]

This is to do with myself and other campers experience with NordEletettronica control panels, Like many others my NordEletettronica NE274 control panel stopped working when I disconnected my batteries, and remained off line for two days, when reconnected there was no power to the control panel.
When people try to contact NordEletettronica, they get no where, NordEletettronica are not interested, they suggest you go to your dealer.
It seems the panels have ether a faulty design, or they have a software bug.

The problem is the panel has a facility, that if the battery voltage hits 10.5 volts or below the system shuts off, in such cases NordEletettronica recommend to disconnect all power, fully charge batteries before reconnecting the NE274, but it seems the card ether can't reset or there is a bug which prevents this from happening, and all anyone wants you to do, is send it for repair, and as I have said, NordEletettronica are not interested.

I don't know if your van is in warranty or not, but this business repairs your electronics I think? No personal experience but have heard good things about their service

Yes I know about them, also of two others, I am electronic engineer, and I find it very disappointing when companies supply cards knowingly having faults, and don't want to supply electronic diagrams of the board so the fault can be traced.

Do you have solar panels? If so did you pull the fuse or cover them before disconnecting if not then with batteries disconnected there could be about 20 volts going through the control panel circuit.

Yes every thing was disconnected, and I mean everything, what seems to have gone, is the display board, not getting the right voltage to the NE274 board, seems NE274 boards don't like resetting themselves, one thing I have noticed, on the rear is a little hole in the cover, which suspiciously looks like it to have a reset switch, but alas not on the circuit board of today.
