If your DSR Battery Charger doesn't turn on when connected, the issue might stem from a dead AC outlet. Check the fuse or circuit breaker supplying the outlet. Another potential cause is a poor electrical connection, so inspect the power cord and any extension cords for loose plugs. It's also possible that the battery itself is defective; have it checked.
What to do if the engine start on my DSR DSR131 does not work?
If the engine start function isn't working, it could be due to several reasons. You might be drawing more current than the Engine Start rate allows, in which case the crank time may be less than 5 seconds. Ensure you wait 3 minutes (180 seconds) between cranking attempts; the Engine Start LED will blink during this time. Overheating can also cause this issue, so ensure the charger vents are not blocked and allow it to cool. If the battery is severely discharged, use the 50A Boost rate for 10 to 15 minutes to assist in cranking.
How to fix reversed battery connections on DSR DSR131?
If the connections to the battery are reversed, the battery is connected backwards. Unplug the DSR Battery Charger and reverse the connections to the battery.
What does 'bAD / bAt / F05' mean on my DSR DSR131?
If your DSR Battery Charger displays 'bAD / bAt / F05', it indicates a lack of progress after 12 hours in Maintain mode. This may be caused by a drain on the battery or the battery could be bad. Ensure there are no loads on the battery. If there are, remove them. If there are none, have the battery checked or replaced.
Why my DSR DSR131 is unable to reach the “full charge” voltage?
If the battery couldn't reach the 'full charge' voltage, it may be because you're trying to charge a large battery or bank of batteries on too low of a current setting. Try again with a higher current setting or have the battery checked or replaced.
Why DSR DSR131 Battery Charger unable to keep the battery fully charged in maintain mode?
If the DSR Battery Charger couldn't keep the battery fully charged in maintain mode, a possible cause is a drain on the battery or the battery could be bad. Make sure there are no loads on the battery; if there are, remove them. If there are none, have the battery checked or replaced.
What does 'bAD / bAt / F02' mean on my DSR DSR131 Battery Charger?
If the display on your DSR Battery Charger shows 'bAD / bAt / F02', it means the desulfation process was unsuccessful after 10 hours. The battery may be defective, so have it checked or replaced.
What does 'bAD / bAt / F01' mean on my DSR DSR131 Battery Charger?
If your DSR Battery Charger displays 'bAD / bAt / F01', it indicates that the battery voltage is still below 10V (for a 12V battery) or 5V (for a 6V battery) after 2 hours of charging. The battery may be defective. Make sure there are no loads on the battery. If there are, remove them. If there are none, have the battery checked or replaced.
What to do if the battery voltage is still under 10V after 2 hours of charging with DSR DSR131?
If, after 2 hours of charging with the DSR Battery Charger, the battery voltage is still under 10V (for a 12V battery) or 5V (for a 6V battery), the battery could be bad. Have it checked or replaced.
What to do if DSR DSR131 Battery Charger detects thermal runaway?
