is BBB kaput / How do I fit a Victron
Posted: 15 Apr 2024, 11:55
Hi all,
noticed nothing was charging on hookup this weekend. Figured out lights are not on leisure yet. I'm now wondering if it's been like this for ages and I've never noticed. We normally plug stuff in to the socket, toaster etc and maybe were running lights of starter without realising. I know stereo was changed to leisure bat. We don't use a lot of power and I do seem to get through both batteries but that could be for various reasons.
Opened BBB up and clear fuse has blown.
Looks like a resistor might have burnt out but this might just be age. Any help appreciated.
I was thinking of swapping out for the Victron before this anyway. I understand it's a straight swap more or less but can someone explain it to me like I'm 5. Do. I snip wires at the charger end?
There is a Propex underneath with a spade fuse but I'm guessing this is fed directly from leisure and is of no concern.
Many thanks
