UNDERSTANDING SOLAR, ALTERNATOR
& CHARGING LIGHTS
SOLAR
ALTERNATOR
CHARGING
• Alternator has priority over solar therefore, if solar and alternator LED are solid, then alternator is charging
• 120 sec delay between cut-in voltage being reached, and charging beginning & 120 sec delay before
disconnecting when under cut-in voltage.
