Troubleshooting

No Blue AC Power LED or Charge Mode Indicator or Battery Type LED
Check for loss of AC power at the 120/230 VAC outlet. Confirm GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) has
not tripped. Check with a meter or 120/230 VAC test light that AC power is present at the end or your
extension cord. Reset AC power if it was not present. Confirm all charger cables are installed with the
correct polarity connections at each battery and that all connections are clean and tight. Wait 2 minutes
while unit performs self test. If AC power is present and all connections are correct and LEDs do not
illuminate, contact ProMariner at +1-800-824-0524 from 8:30 am to 5pm Eastern Time. If your ProSport
is within the warranty period of 2 years from the date of purchase, you can go to www.promariner.com
where you will find our customer care return form and instructions.
Green System Check OK Indicator is OFF & a Red Battery Bank Trouble Status LED is ON.
Identify the battery bank LED that is lit, remove AC power and check the battery bank indicated i.e 1, 2, 3
(model specific).The LED indicates there is a fault present. Listed below are typical faults and what can be
done to clear the red battery bank trouble status indicator (reapply AC power after making any corrections):
Poor battery connections - Make sure all connections are tight and clean
Blown DC cable fuse - Make sure all fuses are good with a digital ohm meter
or continuity tester and visually inspect the ProSport's DC battery cables to insure they have not been
compromised or shorted in any way.
Reverse polarity - Make sure all wiring connections are color coded and connected properly and
that each bank cable goes to one 12V battery where (+) = red (-) = black.
Battery too low to charge - with a digital voltmeter make sure the battery is over 2.0 volts DC (if
not have your battery charged out of the boat and have it load tested by your local battery dealer to
insure optimum performance on the water.
High battery voltage input - Check to make sure one bank lead was not spread across 2 batteries
connected in series for 24 volts DC. If so correct by wiring to the diagrams on pages 16- 22.
Battery(s) not charging, Blue AC Power LED, RED Charging & Battery Type LEDs are ON
Confirm all charger cables are installed with the correct polarity connections at each battery, and that all
connections are clean and tight. Confirm that there are no bank trouble status LED indicators on. With the charger
on, read DC voltage at each battery. If any of the readings are less than 13 volts DC proceed with the following:
A. Disconnect AC power at the 120/230 VAC outlet.
B. Go to pages 16-22 of this manual and confirm your ProSport model charger is connected correctly as
illustrated in the installation drawings.
C. Upon completing B above; plug your charger into AC power and observe the LED center. Charger should be
in the charging mode (charge status indicator should be red). After completing a full charge cycle, 10-
12 hours or more for deeply discharged or completely dead batteries, the charge mode LED indicator
should be green and the AC power LED should be blue.
Note: If a Digital Volt Meter (DVM) is available to you, instead of waiting to complete a full charge cycle, you can simply use
a DVM and take DC voltage measurements across each 12 volt battery.As long as the voltage continues to increase while
the red charging LED is on, this will serve as a confirmation that the charger is properly connected and is properly charging.
