8. Fejlfinding
| Problem | Mulig årsag | Løsning |
|---|---|---|
| Charger not turning on / No LEDs illuminated. | No AC power; faulty connection; charger malfunction. | Check AC outlet and extension cord. Ensure all connections are secure. If problem persists, contact support. |
| Red Warning/Error LED is illuminated. | Omvendt polaritetstilslutning; kortslutning; batterifejl. | Disconnect from AC power. Verify positive and negative connections are correct. Inspect cables for damage. If battery is severely discharged or faulty, it may not accept a charge. |
| Charger struggles in cold conditions. | Extreme cold affecting charger or battery performance. | Ensure the charger unit itself is not exposed to extreme cold for prolonged periods before plugging in. If possible, allow the charger to warm up slightly before use in very cold environments. Battery performance is also reduced in cold. |
| Battery not fully charging or taking too long. | Battery capacity too large for charger; deeply discharged battery; battery sulfation. | Denne 1.5 Amp charger is designed for maintenance and slow charging. For larger or deeply discharged batteries, a higher amperage charger may be needed. Allow sufficient time for charging. Consider professional battery testing. |
