MG MGF Technical - Airflow Battery Management

I think I may have a problem with my Airflow Battery Management thingy charger.

When its disconnected from the mains it doesn't show the current charge state of the battery. When it is connected to the mains it only shows the charging light - it used to show the compensating light. Also the polarity reversed light doesn't work if I connect it the wrong way.

It seems to be keeping the battery charged, although I don't know when the problem started.

The instructions have long since disappeared - any ideas anyone?

Thanks

Hi Paul,
dont know the actual item but be careful because if the internal electronics is "gone" the battery can easily be charged at over 14 Volts and start to gas.
If You have a digital voltmeter check the voltage when connected to the battery after a prolonged charge .
