My friend has a 2016 T6 from a conversion company. It has a 80ah AGM starter battery and the converter installed a ‘smart battery isolator’ split charge instead of a b2b charger.
The alternator was replaced a couple of months ago.
The van has been throwing up a stop start error for a while and now the radio is playing up. I checked the battery voltage yesterday with Carista which read 12.1v
To cut a long and possibly rambling story short (apologies, I’m writing this when I should be working!) is it possible for a split charge to end up damaging the battery? Or is the low battery voltage more likely to be an alternator fault?
The van is driven nearly every day and covers decent mileage.
Thanks!
