have two main connector one main starting battery and the other one sec battery and small one going ground i.e. battery ( - )

that look too low more like 13.78v too 12. 68 v

check that large fuse haven't been re moved from two large cable (if fitted) and also ground wire is in place between unit and battery ( - ) or body work

halls electrical ltd Bristol, Swindon , Exeter suppled the unit

Thanks for all the info and the manufacturer, much appreciated.

Is this the main fuse you referenced?

There's a definite break in volts in between these two points. One side is reading over 12v whilst the other side of it is reading 0.6v so I suspect this is the issue.

If I can't find a replacement I'll try contacting the manufacturer

That's exactly what it looks like! Thanks!

I've just taken the 200 fuse off and the voltmeter is reading a flat 0, which suggests it's all good inside, right?

I'll get a spare on order anyway

Join the wires on one of the studs, what do you get from outputnofnspkit charge then. It probably needs the main battery over a set voltage 13.6? Before it will switch over anyway. Cheers

Thank you
