What to do if my Schumacher Electric SC1361 Battery Charger has a short start cycle?
- RRose PageJul 25, 2025
If you experience a short or no start cycle when cranking the engine with your Schumacher Electric Battery Charger, several factors could be the cause. You might be drawing more current than the Engine Start Rate, in which case the crank time may be less than 3 seconds. Ensure you wait 3 minutes between cranks to allow the battery and charger to cool down. Check for poor connections at the battery and frame, and ensure the power cord and any extension cords are securely plugged in. Also, verify that the AC outlet has power and that the charger vents are not blocked. For a severely discharged battery, use the Boost setting for a few minutes before cranking.
