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.
