Solar charge controller

[Tiggse]

Hi, in my campervan I have a roof solar panel, two 100AH UK-UKG110 leisure batteries and a LS1024B solar charge controller.

In the daytime the controller is on and all is well. However as soon as it becomes dark outside, the charge controller switches off completely and none of the lights and other appliances like water pump etc work.

Do you have any suggestions on how to correct this?

Thank you.

If it used to work ok, I suggest either the batteries are dead or not connected.
If it has never worked, look to make sure the wiring has been done as per the instructions

Thank you, I checked all the wires leading to the battery specifically and one was defective. It's now repaired, thanks for your help.
