Fault-finding

The most common problem normally associated with the Electrique is a failing 12V Auxiliary battery, causing failure to charge.
The problem can be masked because the traction battery constantly charges the auxiliary battery so if you measure the voltage, it will probably look ok at around 12V.
The best way to test it is to remove one terminal from the auxiliary battery, then measure the battery voltage. Anything below 12V is suspect.

If you do find you need to replace the auxiliary battery, you might also have to reset the system as described in the Ecovel Club translated pages  (reset).

Please let me know of any other problems you come across, or if you have carried out any sort of faultfinding, so that I can add to these pages for the benefit of others. ev@berlingo-e.co.uk  Thanks.
