Also, verify that the voltage settings on the charger are appropriate for your battery.
Why short or no start cycle when cranking engine with Schumacher Electric Battery Charger?
If you experience a short or no start cycle when cranking the engine with your Schumacher Electric Battery Charger, several factors could be responsible. You might be drawing more current than the Engine Start Rate allows. Be sure to wait 4 minutes between cranking attempts to allow both the battery and charger to cool down. Check for loose connections at the battery and frame, as well as at the power cord and any extension cords. Also, verify that the AC outlet has power by checking for tripped fuses or circuit breakers. The charger may have overheated, so ensure the vents are not blocked and allow it time to cool. If the battery is severely discharged, try charging it for 10-15 minutes at the highest manual rate to assist with cranking.

Why is my Schumacher Electric SE-125A Battery Charger making an audible clicking sound?
An audible clicking sound from your Schumacher Electric Battery Charger may indicate several issues. The circuit breaker could be cycling because the settings are incorrect. It could also mean the battery is defective, or there are shorted battery cables or clamps. Additionally, the battery might be good but severely discharged, or the connections at the battery are reversed. Check the charger settings and have the battery tested. Inspect the cables and clamps for shorts, replacing them if necessary. If the battery is severely run-down, allow charging to continue, but if it doesn't improve after 20 minutes, have it checked. Ensure the lead connections are correctly oriented.
What to do if my Schumacher Electric SE-125A Battery Charger won't turn on when properly connected?
If your Schumacher Electric Battery Charger fails to turn on despite being properly connected, the issue might stem from a dead AC outlet, a poor electrical connection, or a defective battery. Check the AC outlet for an open fuse or circuit breaker. Inspect the power cord and any extension cords for loose connections. It is also advisable to have the battery checked.
What to do if my Schumacher Electric SE-125A Battery Charger ammeter reading stays high?
If the ammeter reading on your Schumacher Electric Battery Charger remains high, it could mean that the battery is severely discharged; in that case, continue charging the battery for two more hours. It could also indicate the wrong battery voltage. If the problem continues, have the battery checked and verify the voltage settings on the charger are correct.
What to do if my Schumacher Electric SE-125A has no reading on the ammeter?
If your Schumacher Electric Battery Charger shows no reading on the ammeter, several issues could be the cause. First, ensure the charger is properly plugged into a working AC outlet with no blown fuse or tripped circuit breaker. Check that the clips are making good, clean connections to the battery and frame; rocking them back and forth can help. Also, verify the connections are not reversed. If these steps don't resolve the issue, the battery itself may be defective or the 2 amp charge rate is being used (ammeter may show no activity at the 2A charge rate).
