The leisure battery not lighting up on the control panel of an Epsolar EPIPDB-COM series controller after disconnecting it from the solar panel could be caused by the following:
1. No Battery Connection: If the leisure battery is not connected properly, the LED will not light up, as indicated by "LED OFF, no battery or over voltage."
2. Overvoltage: If the battery voltage exceeds the allowable range (maximum battery voltage range is 15V for a 12V system), the LED will not light up.
3. Faulty Battery or Wiring: If the leisure battery is depleted or damaged, or there is an issue with the wiring (e.g., loose or damaged cables), it may not register on the control panel.
4. Self-Consumption: The controller consumes a small amount of power at night (4mA). If the battery is already low, this could prevent the system from functioning correctly.
5. Incorrect Settings or Errors: If the controller has not been set up correctly or is experiencing an internal error, it might not detect the battery.
Check these possible issues to diagnose and resolve the problem.
