Troubleshooting.
When Flashing Leds Illuminate.
When the battery charger detects an ERROR condition, the CHARGE
LED and ERROR LED will flash. If you are seeing this ERROR condition,
it could be the result of one of the following situations:
• Battery Voltage Incompatibility.
Check to make sure you have a 12V battery. This battery charger is for
12V batteries only. If you attempting to charge a battery that is other
than 12V, it could cause this ERROR condition. Charge the appropriate
battery to resolve this ERROR condition.
• Low Voltage Battery.
If the battery voltage is below 2.0VDC (12V), it could cause this ERROR
condition. In this situation, the battery charger has determined that the
battery voltage is too low to begin a normal charge cycle. To increase
the battery voltage and allow the battery charger to begin charging, you
will need to jump start the battery.
• Abnormality Protection.
This ERROR condition is the result of the battery charger being in the
Bulk mode for more than eighty (80) hours. This ERROR condition is
the result of a bad battery. To resolve this ERROR condition, take the
battery to a local battery store for an evaluation.
• Blown Fuse In Battery Connector Harness.
Check the fuse in the battery connector harness. If the fuse in the
battery connector harness has blown, it could cause this ERROR
condition. Replace the fuse with a 15A Automotive Blade Fuse to resolve
this ERROR condition.
• Corrosion On Battery Terminals.
Check the battery connections for battery corrosion. If battery corrosion
is present on the battery connections, it could cause this ERROR
condition. Remove the battery corrosion to resolve this ERROR
condition.
• Loose Battery Connections.
Check the battery connections to the battery. If the battery connections
are loose, it could cause this ERROR condition. Tighten the battery
connections to resolve this ERROR condition.
• Sulfated, Damaged, Or Weak Battery.
If you have checked all other possible ERROR conditions and cannot
clear the ERROR, it is probably the result of a sulfated, damaged, or
weak battery. To properly diagnose a sulfated, damaged, or weak
battery, take the battery to a local battery store for an evaluation. The
battery store will advise if the battery can be charged or needs replaced.
