Battery decisions and recommendations
Decision
Recommended Action and Information
GOOD BATTERY
Return the battery to service
GOOD-RECHARGE
Fully charge the battery and return it to service.
CHARGE & RETEST
Fully charge the battery and retest. Failure to fully charge the battery
before retesting may cause inaccurate results. If CHARGE & RETEST appears
again after you fully charge the battery, replace the battery.
REPLACE BATTERY
Replace the battery and retest. A REPLACE BATTERY result may also mean
a poor connection between the battery cables and the battery. After
disconnecting the battery cables, retest the battery using the OUT OF
GENERATOR test before replacing it.
BAD CELL-REPLACE
Replace the battery and retest.
FROZEN BATTERY
Defrost the battery and retest.
24 VOLT SYSTEM
24-volt system detected. Connect to 12V battery instead of the system.
LOW VOLT REPLACE
Battery voltage is too low.
SYSTEM NOISE
If the result system noise keeps occurring, disconnect the batteries and
test each battery individually. System noise possibly means the generator
is interfering with the batteries. Therefore, an accurate test is impossible.
