2026 32RLS question

We just brought home our new 2026 32RLS and set up at our storage lot.
I wanted to see how well the solar worked with the dealer installed lead acid battery so I turned in the refrigerator and left it for a few days. It was rainy so not a lot of solar, but when I checked back the battery meter showed full but the refrigerator was not running and the touch control light above the "coffee bar" was on.
I turned the light off and restarted the refrigerator yesterday which was partially cloudy with the battery showing 100%.
I checked it this morning and the same thing, light refrigerator was off and the bedroom thermostat was displaying an E3 code but the battery still showed full.
I used the battery disconnect switch, let it sit for 5 minutes and turned it back on which cleared the error.
I am suspecting I need to either upgrade or add a 2nd battery, I'm just perplexed why the light keeps turning on, however using the disconnect it does not cause it to turn on.

Was your Solar power switch in the on position? Was you battery cutoff switch in the on position? Seems weird that battery would be at 100% but nothing really working. I do know that there are some circuits that are always on no matter what position the two cutoff switches are in.
Have you download the VictronControl app? You will find the SN on the side of the device and the pairing code. That will let you know what power the solar panel is contributing.
Hope it helps!

Thanks, I think I found the issue to be with the motion sensor on the basement lights.
I noticed several times during the day / night when I opened the bathroom sink basin light coming up from around the plumbing.

I wanted to add another light in there and will tap in and put a switch in place. For now I'm just pulling the fuse which which has solved the issue.

Thats a little strange as the basement light is motion detecting and should only come on when you open the pass thru doors. Might be that it is malfunctioning and staying on all the time from what you indicated.
