Can you please clarify 'shutdown the batteries'?Looks like I spoke too soon, as I got all the new components, including the battery switch and installed them and still the same problem? I would say it’s even worse as now I can’t even get my charge controllers to light up.
The problem is, I can’t get the right voltage reading from the battery switch to the positive bus bar?
Update: I replaced the positive wire at the battery switch and that solved the voltage problem. Unfortunately, when I connect the fuse to the inverter is still shut down the batteries? I’m going to try to replace the positive wire on the inverter and see if that does anything, as I’m quickly running out of any ideas. I even took off the ground for the charge controllers, and it made no difference whether it’s on ground or off ground. ?
Switched the wire out for the inverter and nothing improved. I did turn on the inverter before I turned on the battery switch and the red low battery light showed on. The shunt seems to be OK, so I’m not sure if I should replace that or not.
Perhaps the CSL from Battle Born Batteries is damaged, but that’s on the negative side?
I’m out of ideas! ?
Do you mean the battery BMS shutdown the battery?
