When plugged into car it doesnt charge battery at all yet got power to the 2 relays swopped them for new and no change even bought new switch control panel no change

Does the car power go through the charger

Very much doubt the charger is in circuit for both mains & alternator powered charging of the caravan battery. Suggest disconnection of caravan battery & only charge "off line" until the problem is sorted.

Sorry but too many unknowns to help.

 

Is the car cam bus or an older vehicle as it depends what system you have to use in order to connect split charging to power up your battery.

 

Not as simple as may be first thoughts.

 

Check that your charger in the caravan is working as it should

For battery charging Pin 9 (where no 1 is on clock face )

Is the live for charging battery and think its called pin no 13 (it's where you see no 7 on a clock) is the earth for charging

Should be quite simple to check these run straight to leisure battery
