What charger is it?
The original flyback charger is a 20 amp 2 bank charger. It's not a smart charger; it doesn't have a float mode or sensors to differentiate which bank to charge first. It should have a 20 amp fuse in line between the charger and the battery.
It also has an internal fuse that you have to take apart the case to change. From what inexperienced and read this charger is not very good. Once it starts blowing fuses its time for a new one. I tried to keep mine going and ended up ruining my 4D battery. Dumb move.
It might be time for a new charger but we need more info to really help.

It is a Charles charger. The fuse is the right amps for charger. I have also checked fuse in charger itself. It charges #2 with no problems. It also blew fuse for my instrument nav pod once.

My idea would be...... disconnect the wire at both ends of that you are talking about and do a continuity test on that wire.
Then give us an answer about that test................
Now this could be fun....a step by step thingy.
