Hi Harry.
Is there actually any current flowing into the battery? Are you able to check with an Ammeter?
Just one step to diagnose, if there is no current flowing then perhaps the Smart Charger is indeed faithfully reporting this.

Hi

After posting, I disconnected the charger and left it connected to power and no reading on my multimeter... I tried it on a smaller seperate battery and again nothing. So the power light is green amd the yellow light flashes and charger moves through the charging process. I've always thought it charging. I dont use it much as I have the batteries charging via the alternator as well (when driving) and solar when campting.

I wonder if I have a dud one??

If it is cycling through the stages of charging then surely current must be flowing. It should be displaying the current in the App.
I'm afraid it seems possible that you have a duff unit.
