Mine does this too. Exactly the same, as the red light goes away completely once plugged into shore power. Flyer, did yours not used to do that before or did you just now notice it? I thought it was normal as the surveyor did not mention this as a problem.
My 2009 278 had so many strange electrical issues that when the dealer told me something was normal, I believed him ! I's like someone got fed up when they built it and at 16:00 on a Friday afternoon thought "that's good enough" !
Abnormal things:
-Forward bilge pump and float auto switch sub system wiring that could never have worked ( +12V and ground were always connected to the pump so it was always on). Disconnected, To be sorted !
-Phantom sub 12V supply to the forward bilge pump switch, not supplied by the forward bilge pump breaker. Not sorted, but disconnected
-Miswiring at the cockpit light switch at the helm; those lights always on; sorted
-Phantom sub 12V supply to the cockpit light switch in the cabin, so they were always on at a low level; not sorted yet, but disconnected.
-Stereo amplifier connected to the engine battery, yet the stereo head unit connected to the systems battery.
Continual drain on the systems battery led to the D4 EVC system losing it's calibration; when it detects such a fault, well, it's not very pleasant or user friendly !
FW seem incapable or unwilling to provide wiring schematics for post 2006 Vista 278s.
