HI finally getting settled in our new Goleta Santa Barbara digs and finding out that the solar charge controller I had installed on the van does not work any more will not turn on The solar panel is putting out 17 + volts in the overcast so it is working and my aux bat is down to 4 volts will put it on a regular charger today I must admit I sometimes forgot to turn off the charge controller to the aux bat before starting the engine and having it take over the charging I assumed that it would not ge good to have both charging the aux bat I got this one off amazon it was working then I just noticed that I could not turn it on the lcd showed off but would not turn on when I pressed the button discovered that the positive lead off the solar panel was not connected hooked it back up and now the lcd display is dark shows nothing So I assume it is not working GHB 20A 12V 24V Solar Charge Controller Auto Switch LCD Intelligent Panel Battery Regulator Charge Controller Overload Protection Temperature CompensationI I am starting to look for a replacement on Amazon any suggestions Now it is only charging the aux bat I would like to have it also charge the main bat
