Hi everyone!
Bought my first camper a few weeks back (69 reg)
Been lurking on the form for a few weeks now and seen so many useful threads from tyre pressures, to insurance companies etc.
I'm not very hands on and my knowledge of the electrics is basically zero.
What I have learnt is that I think my van may need a DC DC Charger?
Here are all pictures which I think may help!
My questions/thoughts:
1) Worryingly the control panel shows the vehicle battery status as basically dead. The van starts up fine and I have had no issues, perhaps I need to get a multimeter out and check the actual battery and the status is just an error?
2) When driving along both the battery status flash blue which I assume mean its charging? Although the leisure battery has never really got past this indication so perhaps its just a split charge system which isn't suitable for my van? Hence my DC DC charger comment above.
3) There seems to be a little solar charger in the front windscreen but whether this actually would do much?
Appreciate any advice and thoughts? Thank you!
