TROUBLESHOOTING

Charger works well but there is no 

volt charge on the volt meter when 

the Switching Power Charger is 

connected to the Portable Power 

Source

a) Possible defective battery or faulty 

breaker. Try using a deice (light, TV, 

etc) with a DC plug on it to see if it 

works.

b) If it works, the portable power 

source breaker is operational and the 

battery may be the issue.

Charger comes up fully charged but 

when test button is pressed, volt 

meter shows low voltage.

a) Portable power source has a 

defective battery. May be caused 

by intense use without allowing a 

cooling down period. 

b) Use a DC plug to connect other 

battery or device to see if volt meter 

analogue indicator moves. If not, 

replace volt meter.

Portable power source is fully 

charged, but has no power.

a) Check where the wire meets the 

jaw on the portable power source 

clamp. Male sure they are well 

crimped, or if your unit has a power 

switch, make sure it is in the ‘On’ 

position.

When trying to use an accessory 

through the DC outlet, a clicking 

sound comes from inside the portable 

power source.

a) The accessory is drawing too many 

amps, causing the internal circuit 

break to cycle ON and OFF.
