Bill'n volks,
This never happened until the auxiliary battery was hooked up. When the LED
was connected to the starter battery, it remained green unless there was a
draw on the system. Now, soon after shutting the ignition off, the LED is
yellow(now showing auxiliary level). It still powers the Plat-cat+
radio+lights through out the weekend without going into the red. I was
mildly concerned, just because it had changed, I feel better now, I think.

That's what my owner's manual describes as normal.
