Charging Issue

[Chinasrig]

Yes sir, I've used Mr Felkers document extensively, I thought I referenced it at the beginning of this post. He does mention that the BCC may be located in the forward compartment under the drivers seat but the only thing in our rig in that compartment is the Bussmann and slide controller. The documentation does state that it can be mounted under the hood, it's not there either as far as I can tell.

I was just hoping that someone else had had this issue and figured it out.

Thanks for your help.

Well there has to be a BIRD somewhere, the "Trombetta" isolation solenoid has no "smarts" that's the purpose of the BIRD - to tell it to open and close (unless overridden by the Emergency Start switch).

One obstacle you are facing is that the 25.1 was a one-year-wonder (I believe) so not as many owners out there.

I believe you are correct it was only built in 2015 from what I've been able to dig up. With the rear lounge in place it could handle about 10 adults comfortably and was a tailgaters dream, which is exactly what my predecessor used it for. Regretfully he was not very good on the maintenance end of things and there have been quite a few issues.

We've reconfigured the lounge to a full time bedroom and it meets our needs quite well, even on extended trips.

I've never heard anyone else mention a 25.1 on the forum. With the immediate problem solved it takes some of the heat off but I still need to find it.

The Birds had issues with open circuits allowing current to be pulled from one bank or the other, especially when mounted near or in the engine bay. The solder connections expand under high heat and short out.

I replaced my bim 160 last year.
Where did you order the Lithium from?
Thx

That link was for the Lithium Battery BIM.

They also make a BIM-225 for lead acid batteries.
