I've found really excellent troubleshooting advice here in the past that has been of great help, so here goes again.
My system has been working well for the past week or so. It can't handle my fridge so that's been off and I've just been running device chargers mostly. Last night I made a bone broth and left it on low overnight. The crockpot is 100 watts. I realize now that having it going 12 hours after a rainy day could have drained my 100 amp battery to zero, which it is at now.
I woke this morning to find a bubbly fatty mess (crockpot had spilled over, won't do that again..) and the entire system down. That's never happened and has me completely stumped. There are 0 volts at the battery. Inverter and charge controller no power. I disconnected the charge controller from both the panels and battery for 15 minutes then hooked back up. It's reading 20 volt from panel and zero from battery of course since battery is fully drained. No PV lights, no lights, nothing.
I'm at a loss. any thoughts..?
