SOLUTION
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.
No problem, this is a normal
condition.
Have charger checked by a
qualified technician.
Crank time varies with the
amount of current drawn. If
cranking draws more than the
engine start rate, crank time
may be less than 3 seconds.
Wait 3 minutes of rest time
before the next crank.
Check for poor connection at
battery and frame.
Check power cord and extension
cord for loose fitting plug.
Check for open fuse or circuit
breaker supplying AC outlet.
The thermal protector may
have tripped and needs a little
longer to close. Make sure the
charger vents are not blocked.
Wait and try again.
On a severely discharged
battery, charge for 10 to
15 minutes at the FAST
charge rate to help assist in
cranking.
Check for open fuse or circuit
breaker supplying AC outlet.
Check power cord and
extension cord for loose
fitting plug.
No problem, this is a normal
condition.
