Just purchased a Burstner Delfin T700 (Renault) 07 plate

Gave it a three day run out just to see how things are, Had a problem unknown at the time but when I hooked up to the 240v on site all 240v items are ok (fridge, TV Radio etc, after day three there was no 12v stuff working even thought I was still hooked up, the battery had dropped to 11v and shut everything down, un plugged 240v turned box off and on started motorhome and all was ok again, Do you have to turn Box on and off once you have hooked up or do I have a problem.

 

Cheers

    I'm not familiar with your van but on ours the EHU simply charges the battery and the battery runs all the 12V devices. When the battery falls below a certain limit it gets charged again. 

    It sounds as if your battery isn't being charged, again on ours you have to switch the charger on, is this the same for you?

    PS I realise this is for a caravan but hopefully this might help. Sorry if it doesn't

    It’s as Corners described, Toncaz, so it looks like you have a problem with the charger. Hopefully, it’s just a matter of not having turned it on but I’m not familiar with the Burstner set up.

    Thanks for the replies, made further enquires and there is no switch on a Burstner, its basicly a plug and go, so will get multimeter out and hope it is just a fuse.

    Hello,

    I have a 07 Renault. It has a CBE charger which does have an on/off switch on the front.

    I can't see a reason for this on an everyday point.

    It's all controlled through the CBE control panel which tells you the state of each battery.

    Hope that helps

    BTW there is a fuse in the charger itself
