necessary 

Output Fuse 

Blown output fuse 

Check  battery  polarity,  replace 
blown fuse 

No Output Current 

Charger  failing  to  provide  the 
required current 

Check the operator has not been 
unplugging  the  battery  mid 
charge  cycle  or  charge  profile 
has  allowed  the  battery  current 
fall below 0.7A 

Monitor ADC Fail  

Faulty MPC35 controller module 

Replace  the  MPC35  controller 
module ensuring the replacement 
is correctly configured 

Over Discharged Battery 

Battery  is  below  1.9  V/C  at 
connection  but  recovers  within 
30 second of charge 

This happens typically due to the 
battery  being  quickly  unplugged 
from  the  truck  and  plugged  into 
the  charger  without  allowing  the 
battery  to  recover.  Regular 
occurrences 

might 

need
