Hi,
I have recently acquired an Abbey County 1997 caravan and have begun to test all the normal services before goiny on holiday. I have come across a couple of problems one of them being electrical.
With 240v lead connected to van and powered up I cannot get any 12v power and I am wondering if the charger is actually working and providing the charge to the battery. I have all the switches in the correct position, charger is switched on and light illuminated, car/van switch in middle position. I was told to remove the battery connecter terminals with 240v connected and test with a multimeter across the terminals to check that the charger is working but on removing the battery terminals it trips the charger MCB.
Any help appreciated
