PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION
CONNECTED (red)
light is not on.
The battery is not
connected correctly.
Connection to battery is
reversed.
The battery voltage is less
than one volt.
Check for poor connection to
battery and frame. Make sure
connection points are clean.
Rock clips back and forth for a
better connection.
Correct connection.
Replace the battery or try
using a manual charger to bring
above one volt.
Indicator lights are lit in
an erratic manner, not
explained in the Oper-
ating Instructions.
A button may have been
pressed while the charger
was being plugged in.
Make sure nothing is touching
the control panel, then unplug
the unit and plug it in again.
The CHARGED (green)
light turns on a few
minutes or less after
connecting the battery.
The battery may be
fully charged or recently
charged, leaving the battery
voltage high enough to ap-
pear to be fully charged.
If the battery is in a vehicle,
turn the headlights on for a few
minutes to reduce the battery
voltage and try charging again.
Also try a lower CHARGE RATE
selection.
The CHARGING (yel -
low) LED is blinking.
The battery may be faulty
(sulfated).
A sulfated battery will eventu-
ally accept a charge. Continue
charging for a few hours. The
CHARGING (yellow) LED will
blink. If not, have the bat-
tery checked or call customer
service.
The measured current
is much lower than
what was selected.
The charger reached the
maximum voltage and is
reducing the current.
No problem; this is a normal
condition.
The charger is making
an audible clicking
sound.
Circuit breaker is cycling.
Battery is defective.
Shorted battery cables or
clips.
Severely discharged bat-
tery, but otherwise it is a
good battery.
Reverse connections at
battery.
The settings may be wrong.
Check the charger settings.
Have the battery checked.
Circuit breaker cycles when
current draw is too high. Check
for shorted cables or clips and
replace if necessary.
The battery may not want
to accept a charge due to a
run-down state. Allow charging
to continue until battery has a
chance to recover sufficiently
to take a charge. If more than
20 minutes, stop charging and
have the battery checked.
Shut the charger off and correct
the lead connections.
Charger will not turn
on when properly con-
nected.
AC outlet is dead.
Poor electrical connection.
Check for open fuse or circuit
breaker supplying AC outlet.
Check power cord and exten-
sion cord for loose fitting plug.
