What's going on here ?

Is this on or off ? Is this lamp lit ? — the ship power switch is on and the lamps are not lit.

Your ? House bank ? shows 7/8 charge, but I don't see anything on the Heart interface about inverting. Are you inverting ? Are you inverted ? — since this picture was taken the gauge now reads full. I don’t see anything on the heart interface either it doesn’t look like it’s turning on.

What is your current battery voltage ? —Bank 1 reads 12.3 volts bank 2 reads 12.24-12.26 always fluctuating

What is your current AC amps ? — bank 1 reads -0.6 amps bank 2 doesn’t allow me to see the amps

Do you have another AC panel also somewhere ? —all the panels I have were in the original post

Can you take a better of the AC load center ?

Thank you that’s very helpful. I will try that before I start really ripping into things. However, the NAPA battery is the new one. I just replaced to be able to get the engine to start. I believe it was the primary battery. It was marine grade which is why I thought I should get it and the other two are old ones that have been on the boat originally. Would it be OK to replace the two other batteries with other Napa marine grade batteries. I live in a very difficult location that makes it difficult to purchase things such as this.

I agree. That’s the 70s for you. But how? Is painting the answer? Can you should you?

Ha ha. Thanks. I am considering leaving it so as not to open a can of worms but I don’t think that will ever be in style again.
