The battery in my 2014 Cy4000 is dead. Does the 1-yr warranty cover the battery? The rig has been sitting for less than a month with no load on the battery.
Batteries would be warranted by their manufacturer.Additional components which have been installed in the recreational vehicle, including but not limited to microwave
ovens, ranges, refrigerators, leveling jacks, furnaces/heaters, DVD/CD players, air conditioning, icemakers,
vacuum cleaners, televisions, hot water heaters, generators, power converters, batteries, and other items not
specifically manufactured by Heartland RV, LLC, are warranted by the component manufacturers as detailed in
their individual manufacturers’ warranties, and are not covered by this Limited Warranty.
My understanding is that the dealers install the batteries, not the factory.
To repeat what was said before-if the unit was not plugged in to power and your battery disconnect was not engaged the battery would probably be dead inside of a month. There are parasitic draws going on in the background that will drain the battery in pretty short order.
Battery is a no-name mx free type. Can't open it to add water. It has a little circular window at the top. Other mx free batteries I have seen with the little window have a green "light" in the window if they are in good condition. This battery window is blank/empty/black.
I'll plug in the unit overnight and see if there is any change in the a.m. Unless there is a problem with the inverter, the battery would have been fully charged when I parked it less than a month ago after returning from trip. When it comes to "storage", the unit gets parked beside the house and waits for the next trip. That is usually the following month.
