Technical battery warning lights on NE152 control panel

[stewart54]

Hi - looking for advice on how to solve flashing battery warning lights on the NE152 control panel fitted to my Trigano Tribute motorhome,

Recently I had to replace the 7 year old starter battery on my Ducato. The RAC fitted a Varta battery and all is ok apart from the fact that the battery warning lights on the NE152 control panel keep flashing.

Per the manual this means the battery charge is less than 10v - a bit strange given that the battery is new.

Any advice on how to stop the lights flashing would be appreciated.

Can you expand on the symptoms: Is it only the cab battery that is appearing not to be above 10v when monitored on the panel? Is the indication for the habitation battery OK? Do both cab and habitation batteries charge from EHU?

Hi rayc - the habitation battery is ok - the NE152 panel shows this battery as fully charged (as does a separate monitor I have for the charging of both batteries via a solar panel). The solar panel monitor is not detecting the cab battery so this would mean that the cab battery has been disconnected from the solar panel wiring - perhaps this happened when the new cab battery was fitted. I have got the motorhome booked in with an auto-electrician next week so the fault can be traced and sorted.

I suspect that the[50A?] fuse that is in the feed from the vehicle battery to the habitation electrical control is blown.
