Vehicle Integration Kit not working properly

I've recently installed the Vehicle Integration kit on a Yeti 3000X, in a 1995 Toyota Hiace.

Upon startup, I'll see 10-12w input, but that dwindles to zero in a minute or two. The batteries (dual battery setup - diesel) are showing 13.7 -13.8V. The Link module shows all four green lights. And no other inputs are powered.

I'm stumped.

Any advice or troubleshooting tips?

    UPDATE:

    It seems the dual power plug from the Link Module into the Yeti has worked its way loose to the point it would only make an intermittent connection - I installed the Link Module over 1 year ago, and only just got around to connecting it to my van's batteries. I have reinstalled it, firmly. And it appears to be working, although the charge rate fluctuates from ~730W -> Zero and back, at idle. I haven't had the chance to drive it for a long period to see if this evens out (it was suggested by GZ Customer support that it would....).

    Hi @Kazumi_the_Hiace,

    Are you using the clamps that come with the link? This is supposed to prevent the EC8 connection from becoming lose in a vehicle.
