The LED’s (both) are always lit!!!!

 

Zener is connected as depicted

 

Vario used is 5K and not 10K

 

I have also tried removing the resistance R4, but nothing happens

 

Voltage measurements that you require are with

1. the battery connected and transformer on, 

or, 

2. with battery connected and transformer off, 

or, 

3. with transformer on and battery not connected.

 

you may mark a mail to my gmail that would be irfanalavi at gmail
