Check the fuse or circuit breaker supplying the AC outlet. * A poor electrical connection. Inspect the power cord and any extension cords for loose plugs. * A defective battery.

      If the LED is lit, it could indicate several issues: * The battery voltage is still below 10V after 2 hours of charging, which may mean the battery is defective. Ensure there are no loads on the battery; if present, remove them. If not, have the battery checked or replaced. * In maintain mode, the output current is more than 1.5A for 12 hours because desulfation was unsuccessful, which may mean the battery is defective. Have the battery checked or replaced. * Lack of progress is detected and battery voltage is below 14.2V, which may mean the battery is overheated. If so, allow the battery to cool. * The battery’s initial voltage is below 12.2V and the total input is less than 1.5 Ah. Have the battery checked or replaced. * The battery voltage drops to below 12.2V in Maintain Mod...
