    Had split charger fitted when I got the bus, recently noticed that the orange light had stopped illuminating, but everything seems to work, except that the ventilated box to the right of the picture seems to be getting hotter than I remember.
    Should it be getting hot, even on a 30min run out ?

    No, to me it looks like a mains powered battery charger.

    Should get warm only on mains hookup.

    If its getting warm with the engine running , I expect that the batteries arent charging very well if at all.

    See if you can get a a picture of a makers plate on the metal box ..

    Picture showing details of left hand " fuse box".
    Nothing on ventilated box to indicate make.

    Leisure battery is always charged, but I do have the van plugged in to the mains when in the garage.[​IMG][​IMG]
