Thank you guys for your response.
Here some facts to clearify: The Link 2000 panel also shows the high voltage when the engine is running and I have also checked the voltage directly at the batterie poles ( with engine on and engine off) and getting the high voltage with the engine running. I know, I shouldn't get more than 14.2V (AGM) and the LINK 2000 is prgrammed for the AGM's (I checked). I didn't put a thermometer at the batteries but I touched them ( right after I was back in the marina, charged with about 18V for 45 minutes) and the feel okay(not even warm).
I try to be observant of many things but I am also still learning (aren't we all?) I would not have mind this challange (and opportunity to learn) on a regular weekend. It's just NOW with so limited access and the vacationtime slipping away. That's a little bit frustrating. I am just glad I did program my plotter to show my the system voltage in the cockpit. I don't know whether I would have noticed otherwise.
I have the manuals and I tried the troubleshooting from there. I just wish they would have been a little bit more clear. Example: It says: with the engine off the green led is not lid (I assume it also means, with the engine on it should be lid, but I am not 100% sure). Fact is both LED's on the regulator are off, with and without the engine).
Xantrex is also saying that the regulator module is made in a way, so it can be repaired locally (authorized Service centers) but on their website they are saying, all LINK components can only be repaired by sending them in directly to them. I tried to do some research on how to get a regulator module replacment, but it seems it is only sold as a package (Link 2000R).
Again, thank for your reponse and
Merry Christmas
