What to do if “ER” shown on Shell SBC400 LCD display?
If you see “ER” on the LCD display of your Shell Battery Charger, it could be due to a couple of reasons: * The battery clamps are connected with the wrong polarity. In this case, you should reconnect the clamps with the correct polarity. * The charger is connected to a 24V battery. This charger is designed for 6V and 12V batteries only, so disconnect it from the 24V battery.
What to do if the LCD display does not turn on in Shell Battery Charger?
If the LCD display on your Shell Battery Charger doesn't turn on, here are a few things to check: * Ensure the charger is properly plugged into the outlet securely. * If the outlet is connected to a switch, make sure the switch is turned on. * Check for an open fuse or a tripped circuit breaker.
Why does the Shell SBC400 LCD display not show the charging status?
If the LCD display on your Shell Battery Charger isn't showing the charging status, it might be because: * The battery clamps are loose or not properly connected to the battery. Ensure that you reconnect the battery clamps securely. * The fuse on the eyelet terminal connectors may have blown. If so, replace the fuse with one of the correct amperage.
What to do if defective battery and charging status icons appear at the same time on Shell Battery Charger?
If you see both the Defective Battery and charging status icons at the same time on your Shell Battery Charger, it indicates that the voltage of the Lead Acid battery is too low for standard charging. Use Force Mode to charge the battery. See instruction in the Charging Modes.
What to do if Shell Battery Charger doesn't detect a 12V battery and charges at 6V?
If your Shell Battery Charger isn't detecting a 12V battery and is charging at 6V instead, it's likely because the battery is over-discharged, causing the auto voltage detection to fail. To fix this, manually select the voltage by pressing and holding the “MODE” button for 3 seconds until the LCD displays 12V.
What to do if “ER” and Defective Battery icons appears at the same time on Shell SBC400 Battery Charger?
If you see the “ER” icon and the Defective Battery icon simultaneously on your Shell Battery Charger, it suggests one of the following: * The battery is defective and its voltage drops quickly after being fully charged. Take the battery to the dealer. * The battery has a high capacity and is charging at a low rate, causing the charging to take more than 72 hours. Use fast charging 4A to charge high capacity battery.
