Club 80-90 Forums

Ok hi all still learning about what Herman can do I recently discovered the black box under the seat in my 1991 westie and noticed the orange light wasn't on whilst on hook up so i flicked it and it came on but after a while the box got hot is this A, normal, B,do i leave it on at all times, C what does it actually charge and D if i don't leave it on how does my batteries get charged.Thanks in advance.Marc.

Which seat is it under?
If it is a largish box with air hoses coming out of it, then it is a heater and is supposed to get hot.
If it is smallish and has wires coming out of it, then it probably shouldn't.

It's under the back seat.

Its the battery charger , you asked this on Brickyard didn't you ?
