Can anyone refresh my memory on what the different lights indicate on a Truma Solar Controller.  In particular Solid Green and a Regular Flashing (not fast paced) Green.

    LED flashes in longer intervals Check connections from the device to the battery and solar module, ensure that they are connected to the right terminals. Test the fuse, solar module and the battery.

    LED flashes Battery is fully charged.

    LED shines. The battery is being charged.

    LED flashes in short intervals The battery is not being charged. If necessary, replace faulty battery.

    LED does not shine Battery not connected or over-voltage

    Thanks chaps.  

    Went down to the storage site yeterday about 3pm and it was solid green.  Had a mental block on what that meant.  I'm normally used to seeing it flash but of course that's when we are in it on site and plugged into 240V.

    My Truma sdc 12 has the MPP green LED on slow flash. No others illuminated. Found the 15A inline fuse for the battery had gone, replaced and initially the problem appeared sorted but now recurred but fuse intact. Battery to Controller circuit intact as is the solar panel to controller.

    Understand this could be a controller fault but new one doing the same . Any pointers here much appreciated .
