Your westy should have a charger (black box) O/S under the rock n roll seat/bed. Users normally hear a faint buzzing that indicates the box is charging but the best way to check is to put a volt meter across the leisure battery (behind N/S seat) the battery voltage should instantly rise from approximately 12.6volts (fully charged battery in good condition) to around 14volts when the mains lead is plugged in.

If you have any probs with the charging, see the thread about the Westy charger previously.

Also on Club 80-90. Extensive thread on it, with fotos on how to install updated modern type charger if yours is duff, or if you want to charge the batts better.
