chrisagilitydogs Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Hi Folks, I am a newbie and this is my first post> I have a Knaus Star Class 550 caravan and we are involved in dog agility all around tha uk. I am having a dispute with my caravan dealer with regard to 12v problems on the caravan. The dealer has mearsured (off load) the voltage at the 7 s socket, on the charge pin and the fridge pin. The measured voltage is 14. 2 volts which the dealer states is EXCESSIVE. I really don't think so. ..... Any thoughts here please????? Thanks.

Chris As far as I know, if the car is running it should be of the order 13. 8 - 14. 2V. Without engine running its more like 12V Kevin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without engine running its more like 12V Kevin with the engine not running there is no vo;tage at these pins . . 14. 2 is OK off load . . its the normal(max) from the alternator if the car battery is fully charged . . if not, or if car services are needed (lights etc) then will be lower Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
