If your Schumacher Electric Battery Charger won't turn on even when properly connected, here's what to check: * First, ensure the AC outlet is working by checking for any open fuses or tripped circuit breakers. * Next, verify that the power cord and any extension cords are securely plugged in. * Finally, the battery itself may be defective, so have it tested.
What to do if my Schumacher Electric Battery Charger has a short or no start cycle when cranking engine?
If your Schumacher Electric Battery Charger isn't providing a full start cycle when cranking the engine, there could be several reasons: 1. You might be drawing more current than the Engine Start Rate; crank time varies with the current drawn. 2. Ensure you wait 3 minutes between cranks to allow the battery and charger to cool down. 3. Check for a poor connection at the battery and frame. 4. Make sure the AC cord and/or extension cord is not loose. 5. Verify that the receptacle has power by checking the fuse or circuit breaker. 6. The charger may be overheated; the thermal protector may need time to reset. 7. If the battery is severely discharged, use the 10A Boost setting for a few minutes to assist in cranking.
