Orion Tr 12/13 30 [non smart] not charging

My wires are tight. I have the correct size fuses. I'm getting 14.13 (Ive tried to turn it to be closer to 14.6v but atm this seems to be the most.)from the car battery. But my system isn't charging. The turn system on the non smart charger has terrible feedback, and almost feels useless. All of the forms have been for the smart system. I wish I had purchased thr smart, but it's tolate for me to return and swap it out.


1st image car on.

2. Car off

3. Fuse on car battery


help would be appreciated I'm not getting power feed to the battery, and have had a almost complete decline of my battery since installing.

The non-smart Orion are not designed as a charger.

That's also mentioned in the datasheet/manual.
