TROUBLESHOOTING
Performance problems often result from little things that you can fix yourself. Please
read through this chart for a possible solution if a problem occurs.
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION
Indicator lights are lit in
an erratic manner not
explained in the "Using
Your Battery Charger"
section.
The charger may be
defective.
Return to place
of purchase for a
replacement.
The red abort light always
flashes before the battery
is charged.
This will happen if the
battery did not reach full
charge within 24 hours.
May be due to a very large
battery or a bank of
batteries requiring more
than what a 12 Amp
charger can deliver within
24 hours. The battery may
also be bad.
Reset the charger by
unplugging it or briefly
disconnecting the negative
battery clip. Select the
desired charge rate and
battery type again, if
necessary.
Engine crank time is less
than specified.
Starter motor may be
drawing more than 75
Amps.
Charge the battery at the
12 Amp rate for 10 to 15
minutes then crank the
engine.
The green full charge light
turns on a few minutes
after connecting to the
battery. The battery may be fully
charged or recently
charged leaving the
battery voltage high
enough to make the
charger think the battery
is 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.
