Hello everyone, id like to start by saying that this site has been amazing for tips while building my wfp system, especially things like the guttering hopper to fill your di's. Amazing idea (and easy to pick up from wickes last minute!).
Again, im sorry to post a question for my first post, but im panicking.
Im going out tomorrow with the set up for the first time. Ive built it myself but its engineered to a high level. I have a new way of bolting a tank to the chassis in a vivaro ill share when i have more time next week.
Ive fitted a TCW controller with charging relay (v11?). Tested it yesterday. All working fine. Ive looked in the back today and noticed that the controllers still flashing CHG even though the ignition is off
All wiring is 100% correct, i believe. Im thinking it may be the terminal on the van battery ive picked. Has anyone had this issue? Ive tried searching with no luck.
I was advised by my neighbour (old and wise) that the larger cable would probably be to the starter motor. I had it on that originally but had the same issue. Tried it on the thicker one and its the same.
Am i right in thinking it shouldnt be saying CHG when the van isnt running?
Any advise would be great, im scared of having a flat van battery on my first day with my new kit .
Cheers
Chris
