Bongo Fury

UPDATE

LB still on charge,being an unsealed battery is the acid supposed to bubble whilst charging Have contacted Willinton and a new relay is been sent out tomorrow so fingers crossed this will fix the problem. Just like to say thanks for all advice and a big thank you to Willinton for another first class service.

Well mine aint bubbling, it's pushing out 12.4v whilst charging, charger at 60% charge.

Possibly but only a little bit, that's Oxygen and Hydrogen in them bubbles and a naked flame could cause a BANG, keep it well ventilated.

Update.

LB now charged from a battery charger checked output with engine off I'm getting 12.3v and with the engine running the same 12.3v is this right or should I see a slight increase SB with engine off 12.56v and with the engine running 14.46v. Like I said in a previous post Martin is sending me a new relay to change Fingers crossed problem should be sorted

You should see an increase in the voltage with the engine running, it does sound like the relay is not charging the LB.

New relay arrived today from Martin (Willinton), checked output's again b4 fitting just to make sure I hadn't misread my multimeter and for sure 12.4v with and without engine running . Next step fit new relay and check output again, 12.4v without engine running and 14.43v with the engine running
I would just like to say a big thank you to Martin for is help and speed in sending me a new relay.
