does not appear to be charging and I need to check it out for possible
replacement but I'm not sure of its location.....Any advice please .?

Take off charge and test the voltage with a multimeter, it should be around 12.7 volts after an hour of the charger , if it’s dropping sounds as thought the battery need’s replacing
