    What charger do you have? The Zivan chargers were optional on late 550s with the connector down near the radiator. CTEKs were never an option on 550s or 575Ms. Zivan system shown below:

    Jimmie- Affirmative, the Zivans were never particularly reliable, at any rate. Schedoni carrying case is nice though, and my CTEK sits in one. Not that I ever use it,
