What to do if Schumacher SE-1555A Battery Charger has short start cycle when cranking engine?
- C
  Crystal ForbesJul 31, 2025
  If you're experiencing short start cycles when cranking the engine with your Schumacher Battery Charger, it could be due to drawing more than 150 amps for 3 seconds or less, or not waiting 3 minutes (180 seconds) between cranks. Crank time varies with the amount of current drawn. If cranking draws more than 150 amps, crank time may be less than 3 seconds. Be sure to wait 3 minutes before attempting the next crank.

Why does Schumacher SE-1555A Battery Charger digital display read less than selected charge rate?
- M
  Michael TorresAug 5, 2025
  If your Schumacher Battery Charger's digital display shows less than the selected charge rate when charging a discharged battery, it could be due to several reasons: the extension cord being too long or having too small of a wire gauge, a weak cell or sulfated plate in the battery, or the battery being only partially discharged. Try using a shorter or heavier gauge extension cord. A sulfated battery will eventually take a normal charge after a period of time. If the battery will not take a charge, have a qualified technician test the battery. Continue to charge battery.

  Ashley PenningtonAug 9, 2025
  If the circuit breaker in your Schumacher Battery Charger cycles on and off with a clicking sound, it indicates that the current draw is too high. This could be due to shorted battery clamps, a shorted battery, reversed charger leads, or an incorrect CHARGE RATE SELECTOR button setting. Separate the clamps. Check for worn cables and replace if needed. Ensure correct connections. Correct the selector setting.

  If your Schumacher Battery Charger's digital display shows zero amps, it might be due to poor clip connections or using a 2 amp charge rate. Check for poor connection at the battery, ensuring the clamps and posts are clean. Note that if the battery is excessively run down, it may not accept a charge readily, and the digital display may show no activity at the 2 amp setting.
