TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem

Cause

Solution

Bad Battery light 
comes on

The battery voltage is between 
0.5V and 1.5V.

Have the battery tested by a 
qualified technician;

Replace the bad battery if 
necessary.

The battery voltage is lower 
than 11V(12V),22V(24V) after 
being charged for 4 minutes.

The battery voltage drops 
below 12V, 24V two minutes 
after being fully charged.

Couldn't reach fully charged 
status in 24 hours.

Battery does not 
charge

Lack of AC input power.

Make sure that the charger is 
plugged into AV outlet and the 
POWER LED is lit.

Faulty connections to battery 
terminals.

Unplug the charger and check 
the battery connection; ensure 
that there is a good connection 
at the battery terminal/post 
and/or vehicle chassis..

Wrong charge voltage 
selection.

Check that the correct charge 
voltage was selected for the 
battery being charged..

Battery voltage too low.

Ensure enough charging time 
was allowed to charge battery.

Charging a very cold battery.

If the battery being charged is 
extremely cold (below 
freezing), it will not accept a 
high rate of charge, so the 
initial charger rate will be slow. 
The rate of charger will increase 
as the battery warms. 
Never attempt to charge a 
frozen battery.
