Tazz if the panel has had a dodgy battery for years the charging side of the panel could be knackered so he needs to ensure he is getting around 13.6vdc on the battery leads. Remember the panel doubles up as a battery charger and this panel was one of the first NVM versions of the Optima family (should have a rubber membrane/buttons)
Somethimes we make it too easy...one for the record and hope i dont bore you.
When we designed the optima we fitted NVM chip as you know to store settings....but being new tech then, we forgot to add a watch dog circuit, which basically keeps timing and reloading the info. so sometimes the optima can lock, it will still srore the settings but can reload them, luckly they didnt lock up to much in the field....arh well you live a learn
