Solar panel display location

[captg]

This may be a dumb question.

Where would the solar controller and the display located
on my 2021 R27OB LE with the Lithium Battery option.

Thanks in advance
Gary

Gary. I’ve been searching for my solar panel controller for months without success. I’ve sent pictures to FM hoping they can shed some light on the location issue. Everywhere I’ve been ask to look it’s not there and it’s certainly not mounted where the manual says it should be. If/when you find yours please let us know. That would be helpful.
Cheers

On another R27OB it's located in the starboard side storage
Here is a video of location as he is replacing the factory one
Do you have lithium batteries and inverter set up?

Do you have a solar display?

G. Yes. I have the optional remote solar display which is mounted on the main electrical panel on the port side. It appears to be working fine but I want to find out where the main solar panel controller is located. I’ve used a flexible fiber optic scope to try to see where the cable leads from the remote panel to try to find where the main solar control panel is mounted. I know by looking at the back of the remote panel there’s several feet of cable neatly coiled and secured. I know the other end of this cable has to be connected to the solar panel controller or it wouldn’t display any readings but for the life of me I can’t find out where the cable goes. I’m just about at the point of taking out the floor and port side of the port quarter berth to see if I can find an answer. Ive sent multiple pictures to FM to get them to look into the matter and I’m waiting for a response.

I don't have a display on mine. I have the owners manual on both but there are not installed on my boat. With further digging into the wiring my panel goes straight to my dc-dc charger on channel/input two but no reading of amps of volts from it.
At least you have indication it is working!

Looking forward from hearing from someone from the factory.

Hello,

I am working with our engineers to find out where we have that, once I hear back I will let you know.

Thanks,
