Question Solar Charging System

[Kozzer1]

Hello all,

New to the site, looks great!
I have a 2024 Brinkley G3500, the solar has quit charging the batteries. I called Brinkley to inquire about the fuse(s), he said there is a 15amp fuse in the pass through in the front of the unit. Does anyone have any idea where it might be located? I can’t seem to find it.

Any help is appreciated!

There may be an access panel in there secured by square head ( Robertson), remove the panel and it may be in that compartment. May be close to the MPPT controller for the solar or it may be on the interior wall adjacent to the solar prep port on the exterior wall.

There should be switch also to cut the panels off for safety. Look for something like that.

Where it is, and where it should be are two different things. It could be inline, preferably before it passes any panels.

Take your multi meter and check if there is voltage when the sun shines at the controller terminals marked for the panels. If there is check the voltage out of the controller marked battery. That voltage should be between 13.8 and 14.4. those are typical charging voltages for a 12v system.
