Hi Chris Thanks for your reply. It seems that the 12v battery voltage is dropping below 12 volts towards the end of the main charge. So if you try & drive the van as soon as the main charge is finished or if you interrupt the main charge near its end & then drive the van you have problems. W...

My 12 volt warning light is going on & off, mostly first thing in the morning, after an overnight charge. To start with I found a cracked battery clamp, which I changed & I thought the problem was cured. But now it's back & worse. This morning I decided not to drive the van because the m...

Many thanks

Best regards
