Section 6: Electrical System
Before checking for converter output voltage, the battery cables must be disconnected at the
battery. Make sure the converter is plugged into an AC source (105-132 AC volts). Check
the converter output voltage at the battery with a voltmeter. Place the voltmeter probes on
the disconnected battery cables. If the voltage reads 13.6VDC with no load, the converter
is functioning properly.
If the converter output voltage at the battery reads in the 0.0VDC range, or the battery is not
charging, check for:
An open inline fuse in the battery wire
An open wire between the converter and the RV battery
Loose ground connection
Improper torques
If the converter fuses and AC voltage are good, but the converter output still reads zero volts,
the converter is not functioning properly.
Modes of Operation:
Absorption (Normal) Mode:
13.6VDC range. Batteries are being charged, just at a slower
rate. Converter will not work without AC input.
Float Trickle Mode:
To get your converter into this mode, reduce the load on the system to
almost nothing but the battery. Let the system sit for approximately 44 hours.
Converter voltage will drop to 13.2VDC. If the converter sees any load during this period or
after it is in Float Mode it will revert back to Absorption (Normal) Mode. 13.6VDC.
Bulk Mode
: Converter will not jump into the Bulk Mode unless the battery is below 50%
of charge, or approximately below 13.2VDC output voltage. There is no way to force it to
go into Bulk Mode.
Red LED indicates blown fuse.
Inspection and maintenance
If the 12-volt power converter is not working (auxiliary battery not being charged) check the
reverse polarity fuse(s) located on the end of the converter.
There are no customer serviceable parts inside the converter case and the manufac-
turer’s warranty will be void if the case has been removed
. If you have further concerns
contact your dealer.
For detailed safety and operating information, refer to the
manufacturer’s owner’s manual.
Converter w/Charge Wizard (if so equipped)
Some converters may be equipped with a charge wiz-
ard There are (3) possible charging modes; NORMAL,
BOOST and STORAGE. The charge wizard will auto-
matically select the best mode to charge your battery. A
green LED next to the wizard mode button will indicate by
flashes, which mode is currently being used.
It is important that the fluid level of any connected batteries be checked on a
regular basis. All batteries will “gas” and lose some fluid when continuously
connected to any charging source (does not apply to “gel-cell” batteries).
