Well, I'm making some progress on my Xantrex issue.I noticed that my float charge was a steady 13.5 at 50 degrees OR 30 deg. That was a strong indication that my battery temp sensor was inoperable. I disconnected the temp sensor at 40 deg ambient temp and no change.
Purchased a new temp sensor, it arrived today.
As soon as I installed the new sensor the float voltage jumped up to 14.2, ambient temperature at 36.7
So far so good. Now, to get these batteries desulfated I have two options, purchase a used Xantrex truecharge 2 or repair the control board so that I can get the remote panel back. With a functional remote panel I can then kick the charger into desulfate mode and hopefully bring these house batteries back to life.
