As per title!
Of course I verified the panels are correctly connected. In fact I have the exact same setup twice on the boat side by side, all the same.
When I turn the Pv breaker on it goes off right away just like if there was a short but there is none.
When the breaker is off I see the battery voltage for the Pv (minus .5v I think).
It is like if there is a short in the controller?
Anything I can reset?
Bluethoot and contrôler access is working fine so problem.
Any help greatly needed now.
Thanks.
Here is an update. Turned out one of the two panel connected in series is internally shorted. The other one must have fried as well because it ouputs millivolts (although varying with the sun/shade variation.)
That is not a good day.
Here is another update: I used the two other working panels I have and connected them to the "faulty" controller.
The panels are showing up with the expected 130v and the controller is putting up the 35A. When I remove the panel it is back to battery voltage minus 0.5v.
It seems to work but I am wondering if this is not the symptom of something broken inside the controller. I don't care it shows battery v - 0.5v If no panel is connected. I am performing a cycle charge and will see. If anyone has info please let me know.
