Attached is some text from the Bullard Eclipse Powerhouse Charging Station User Manual. Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with the light codes. Mark raised the cab and did some tinkering to address the left side charging station not being lit. Brett identified this as an issue last week. Mark changed a fuse that feeds both of the rear mounted Eclipse. That somehow restored power to the left unit. Perhaps he wiggled a loose connection near the base of the wires? We rotated the batteries to try to figure out if we had a bad battery that was causing our mayhem.
What Mark noticed and causes us concern is that the chargers are showing green right before the motor is started. When the starter draws down the batteries is causes the chargers to initiate a self check and new charging cycle. This may not be good and may be an indicator that we need to consider some isolation to protect these chargers. Mark is going to talk to Kevin about it.
