G in a circle on the display

[DessyParkerWigWam]

I have this G in a circle - where there used to be a battery image - please can someone advise if this is normal and what does it mean?

Means the battery is being charged up by the alternator. Turn the engine off & it will revert to the battery pic.

Yes it’s normal, not sure what the ‘G’ stands for, sure someone will confirm, but it basically means the alternator is charging your batteries, i.e engine is on.

Like this it's normal and we can see that it's charging. What have you changed since your other post on the same subject?

Leisure battery

My leisure battery is at 40% see image on my T6 - this has not changed in over 1.5hr of motorway driving - the A has stayed at 0.0 or -0.2 the whole journey … and the V had stayed at 12.0 the whole time … should I be concerned or need to do something or is this normal?

G for generator. Generator is the German for Alternator.

@DessyParkerWigWam Was the disconnected wire the one that connects this device on the battery post?

If it was disconnected then, the battery charging system will not function correctly, the stop start feature would be disabled and the charging voltage would be a default value and the battery would most likely not be charged fully. So the vehicle would operate but not to full function, it might also be that the leisure batteries are not being fully charged or at all.
