Reply With QuoteHere was me thinking it rude to suggest that a sparky might not have done a proper job!

SupporterAs suggested, it was a bad earth connection. Took the sparky half an hour to figure it out after initially saying his original earth connection should have been fine.
Camper batteries now charging perfectly - thanks for your input guys, much relieved.

Several times I typed the suggestion then aborted the post, thinking it couldn't really be that basic. I used to get into trouble wanting to recheck other people's work from scratch when something didn't work, obviously not trusting the person's abilities, so try not to be so quick.

SupporterGraeme I often take suggestions I read on this and other forums to technicians and 'specialists' and get reactions ranging from a raised eyebrow to outright scorn. Today's reaction was at the lower end of the scale, but I could tell what he thought of my suggestion to check his own earth connection. Until he put a meter on the battery then checked the volts and amps at the back and suddenly discovered 'a discrepancy' of 2 volts. Something he should have checked two years ago.
Finding a better earth fixed the problem immediately.
