Hi

i have just fitted a splitcharger to my van alls been ok the last three weeks but tonight when i went for a ride in it a notice the CHARGE light was on ? and that the SEDIMENT light was on. I am going to have the batttire checked tomorrow and just to make sure i have wired everything up ok but i have no idea what the sediment light means the book says " when the water level in the ssedimentation exceeds the limit" but where is this and what does it look like and what do i do when i find it ?

thanks your help would be great thanks [-o<

The same thing happened to me I didnt earth the leisure battery properly and it went flat as it was not getting enough charge.

So is it a Willinton kit and did you wire it to the fuse box as per instructions?

Can you hear the relay click as it starts to charge the leisure battery?

if you have wired the willinton right then it sounds like the alternator is on its way out

Start by disconnecting the split charger and see if the problem is still there, if not then you know where to look :wink:
