I posted a thread a while back asking for some advice about the electrical set up on my caravan which is a swift charisma 2008. I've still got some questions about how it all works out so thought I'd start a new thread.
Having brought the van back this evening from being in storage I immediately hooked it up to the house mains. The elctrical switches allow me to select eithet Car, Van or have the switch inbetween both. When I hooked up to the mains the switch was in the Car position and the LED display indicated Zero. If I put the switch inbetween car and van the display also indicated Zero. In the Van poistion the LED then displayed 12.9. Next, whilst in the Van position I switched on the battery charger button and the LED changed to 13.9. Is this because the van is drawing electricity from both the house mains and leisure battery? If I then moved the switch to both the Car and inbetween setting the LED increased again to 14.9. Why does the AMP increase when I do this and why do I only get a LED reading in the Car and Inbetween setting when I turn the battery charger on? Thanks in advance
