Solar panel working ?

[si-forks]

Hi new to VW transporters and campervans my T6 has a solar panel fitted on the pop top roof connected to a Ctek d250se but there is just a single flashing light on it all the rest are off ?
Is this working? there isn't a monitor fitted
Thanks Simon

This is what mine looks like now with ignition off and just the sunlight doing its thing.

Ok I have nothing just a green flashing light bottom left
I wonder if it's a fuse

Is that not current saving mode?

Does this thread help?

CTEK D250SE - Still having dramas, despite the very helpful forums!

Hi, Hoping someone can shed some light on my issues below please... hoping to go away soon! DC-DC CTEK D250SE New charger (with NO smartpass). 2x 100ah AGMs, 2x 100W (19v) Solar in series. My solar is intermittent every 70 seconds or so, but the correct lights are showing. It seems like this...

Have a look to see if there is a fuse fitted on the solar positive wire going to the top left connection on the C-Tek. They are normally around 30amp

either the battery could be full, try turning a few things on to create a draw, or the panel is broken or there is a break in the cables from the panel to the cetek (fuse?)

It might be worth adding in a BM2 monitor across the battery so that you can see what the voltages are. They are only £20 or so...
