Solar Panel Help

Hi,
I purchased x3 Solar Panels for approx £7000, 2 years ago by these door to door sales people (my fault). There made it sound so attractive that I would be saving so much money that I decided to purchase them.

However after a year the local council wrote a letter informing us that the 1 of the solar panel was sticking out towards the front of our roof and that we had to get this moved.

So I moved 1 of the solar panels to the other roof where the kitchen extension has been done, however since then my solar panels are not generating no where near what there should be and everytime I send a reading to the grid it always fails as it shows to be to less.

I got a feeling maybe the solar panel that I moved to the other roof may not be connected properly. Does anyone have any knowledge about solar panels and can maybe advise a way how I can check that the solar panel is working and producing? Or is anyone or does anyone know a solar panel installer that maybe able to help?
 
I would assume they are all linked together and as you moved one to another roof you bought an extension kit to link it properly?
Dark days or very cloudy with have issues as very bright days would work much better.
 
That's right. There linked so had to get a long wire and linked it to the other panels.

Yes in the summer it generates more, however I'm generating over 50% less as of what I was generating this time last year and readings carry on failing as there showing to be short of what there should actually be.
