Evening all,

We are still getting to grips with our 1992 T4 Trident. And I have a questions around the leisure battery and charging:

We have a zig MC-2000 Unit in the van. Which I think doesn't operate properly. The Water gauge doesn't work, and the battery lights don't light up, either green or red. There is a leisure battery in the rear (stupidly placed bang in the middle of the boot floor, so hampers load capacity). I cannot for the life of me find a switch to indicate that I have a charger that will charge the battery when on 240v hook up. As I understand it this was optional extra. Fine...I can live with that...although would be interested to know if this is a cheap and easy retrofit?

So, if the leisure battery doesn't charge when on 240v. Does it charge when we are driving? If not, then I guess I need to charge to when at home?
