Expected voltage when idle on leisure battery
Posted: Fri Jul 19, 2013 1:40 pm
I'm trying to diagnose some charging issues with my leisure battery. My question is what is the expected voltage at the LB terminals when the engine is idling? I have a split charge setup, but I don't think it's voltage sensing... I think it just uses the current from the ignition when running... anyways..
I get the following measurements:
SB - 14.10v
Wire into relay from fuse box - 13.86v
Wire coming out of relay to LB - 13.74v
LB - 13.7
Waeco 12v plug (dedicated wiring from LB) - 13.72
Does this sound about right or am I losing too much voltage to the LB in the wiring somewhere?
