went down today, and found that my broker had knocked out a shore power cord by crammign abunch of stuff into the transom locker.
it appeared that, as a result, port batteries were low.
later, i noticed a couple of things:
- sea ray systems monitor called up about every fault it has in the data bank: port engine alarm, stbd engine alarm, water temp, exhaust tem, forward bilge pump, aft bilge pump
- radio won't power up
- salon lights were dim when i hit front lights on the dc panel
- gfci was popped - fixed it
i am hoping this will all be cured by a few days of charging, now that the shore power cords are plugged in. is this systems monitor gone wacky a result of low voltage in the port batteries? it only wigged out when i turned on dc accessories. when ac only accessories were on, it was fine.
