Ok I will do that if this happens again. As I said I just bought the batteries and they have a 2 year warranty so I'm covered there. If it turns out to be the charger I will have to have someone change it out sad I'm sure I can't do that. Thanks again for your help and the welcome to the forum.
Well I plugged the charger back in to make sure I knew which bank was flashing green/orange before I switched the leads. Now both banks are solid green. I also tested both new batteries and they are both around 13 volts and around 12 with a load test. So if I have the same problem again I think...
I just put in 2 new deep cycle batteries for my trolling motor. I plugged in the onboard charger to ensure the batteries are fully charged. One bank is green the other blinking green/orange. Can someone tell me what the problem is? I've checked the connections twice and they are correct.
