Used as a Multipurpose Power Supply
Your Truck PAC is also a portable power source for all 12 Vdc accessories equipped
with a male 12 Volt plug. The DC outlet on the Truck PAC has automatic overload
protection.
When your Truck PAC is used with a DC to AC power inverter, it can operate
appliances normally powered by 120 Vac or 220 Vac. Recommended inverter for the
portable power source is 300 watts maximum. For more information, contact your
nearest Truck PAC dealer.
Note: The DC outlet on Model No. ES8000 is a 24 Volt outlet and should only be used
to power 24 Volt accessories.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem:
1 or 2 red lights come on, charger is plugged in for 24 hours and there is
no change in status of lights.
Answer:
Check charger to see if it is charging. Charger should be warm.
Problem:
Charger works well but still no change in status of lights when the wall
charger is connected to the Truck PAC (yellow light is on).
Answer:
Possible defective battery or faulty breaker. Try using a device (light, TV,
etc.) with a 12V plug on it to see if it works. If it operates, the Truck PAC
breaker is OK and the battery is the problem.
Problem:
All of the lights come on when the charger is plugged into the Truck PAC,
but when the charger is unplugged and the test button pressed, no lights
come on.
Answer:
Your Truck PAC has a defective battery which must be replaced.
Problem:
The Truck PAC is fully charged but has no power.
Answer:
Check where the wire meets the jaw on the Truck PAC clamp. Make sure
they are well crimped.
Problem:
When trying to use an accessory through the 12 Volt outlet on the Truck
PAC, I heard a clicking sound coming from inside the Truck PAC.
Answer:
The accessory is drawing too many amps, causing the internal circuit
breaker to cycle ON and OFF. There may be a problem with the
accessory (such as a short circuit) that is causing the overload condition.
