PROBLEM
POSSIBLE CAUSE
SOLUTION
The charger will not
turn on when properly
connected.
• AC outlet is dead.
• Poor electrical connection.
• Battery is defective.
• Check for open fuse or circuit
breaker supplying AC outlet.
• Check power cord and extension
cord for loose fitting plug.
• Have battery checked.
The battery is properly
connected, but the
Charging LED never lit.
The battery voltage is low.
Press the Start/Stop button to start
charging.
Short or no start cycle
when cranking engine.
• Drawing more than the Engine
Start Rate.
• Failure to wait 3 minutes (180
seconds) between cranks.
• Clamps are not making a good
connection.
• AC cord and/or extension cord is
loose.
• No power at receptacle.
• The charger may be overheated.
• Battery may be severely discharged.
• Crank time varies with the amount of
current drawn. If cranking draws more
than the Engine Start Rate, crank time
may be less than 7 seconds.
• Wait 3 minutes of rest time before
the next crank, to allow the battery
and charger to cool down.
• Check for poor connection at
battery and frame.
• Check power cord and extension
cord for loose fitting plug.
• Check for open fuse or circuit
breaker supplying AC outlet.
• The thermal protector may have
tripped and needs a little longer to
close. Make sure the charger vents
are not blocked. Wait and try again.
• On a severely discharged battery,
use the Boost Charge setting for few
minutes, to help assist in cranking.
