Hello,
I'm new to posting to this site and a fairly new RV owner, although I have graced several articles within. I was on hold with GD customer service and decided to bail and ask for help here.
Here is my TT specs and details that I hope you can use to help me with my issue with what I believe my batteries aren't charging.
TT = 2022 Transcend Xplor (picked up in Dec 2021)
Model = 221RB
Batteries = Qnty 2, one=11.78v, two=11.79 (standard)
Solar panel on top, Furrion Solar Charger FSCC30PW-BL, fan works, green light flashes, amber light on for standard batteries. Battery disconnect switch is in and enabled
Conv circuit breaker is on, I switched it off, then on
We primary camp with electrical hookup and have not had any issues. This weekend we did not have electrical hookup and were primarily relying on the batteries and occasionally a generator. Prior to leaving for the 4 day trip, it was very sunny and solar panels were exposed to sun for 2 days.
The first night everything seemed OK, led lights, fridge, water pump, and awning worked fine. The second night the fridge kept cycling on and off, which led us to check the batteries. They were drained.
We connected the generator up and ran it for a few hours and it seemed to charge the batteries, but not much. That evening the fridge started cycling again and the battery indicator showed E.
The batteries may show a 2/3 charge, but once I turn on a load like the water pump, it goes to 0.
Any thoughts? Thanks in advance for any help.
Marty
