Check batt with volt meter. Less than 7volts will do that. Battery might be hosed. Try the boost mode.

I had the same problem. It would never fully charge my new motorcycle battery. It would say that it was charged but it would not even turn over. So the charger went in the trash. Sorry I couldn't help.

If it is charged, soon after you plug it in you will see the green light blink. That is as much charge your going to get. Charge it near you, keep eye on it. When a battery is no good it might start to blink but you won't be able to turn it on. After you have a full charge, run the battery all the way down, make sure it's real low, that way when you charge it up you train the battery for long life. Good Luck, Kris If you have any problems email me at kristophergeorgeking@gmail.com, i will help you!

Yes, I connected two batteries in my motorhome. I first disconnected one ground cable, then connected one lead to that post and the other to the positive post on the other battery. Within minutes, I got the flashing green light indicating full charge and in float status.

sounds like the batteries are nearing the end of life. mine does this now too, but they still charge. new batteries work as the manual says and the lights blink and slow to a stop. i have been milking these "old" batteries for a while and the charger not stopping is the only issue along with reduced fly time of course.

I wondered the same thing. With our Gator, when I charged it with the old charger the light would blink the entire time I was charging in but would only hold the charge for riding a very short time. You might want to call customer service at Peg Pergo first.

When it's charging, you can see the lights around the power switch blinking. When it is fully charged, all the lights are lit solidly and stop blinking. Mine works great!

When I first put this charger on my motorcycle and it worked fine ,it used to have a blue light on top that was on when in the sun. that light is no longer on ,is the charger still working

I charged a lawn mower battery,6 volt tractor battery and a 12 volt battery with no problem, make sure the light are coming on and you have the ( + and _ ) on the right post and the charger on the correct settings.

I had the same problem. I used my I phone charger I also tried pluging it into my computer to charge. I didn't get it to show more than the battery blinking. I also tried new batteries it still did not show a full charge. The radios died after a few mins use.

According to the written text on the charger it states Red Light Flashing - "Reverse Polarity or Battery Fault" So I'd double check whether you connected the leads wrong then get a battery tester to make sure an internal short does not exist. Hope this helps anyone reading this question.

Hi Bennet, Sorry for late reply. If the battery is not charged fully, its light flash. But once it is charged fully, its light stop flashing. If you have any further questions, please let us know it.

Make sure your batteries are correctly installed and then plug it into the provided charger. I charged mine when I received it. Also check all battery compartment connections. I had a slightly bent connector. If it fails to work after that I would defiantly as to exchange it. They really are great headlamps. Despite some of the minor issues.

Tried to use it once and couldn't get it to work by using that method I was in a hurry and pulled out my trusty battery charger . Haven't had an opportunity to test try it since . Don't know what I was doing wrong system showed correct hook up and then the blinking lights came on but would not start bike ??

You'll have to be more descriptive of "a lot of sparking". If you see a few little sparks when you hook it to batteries, that is normal (assuming they are all still hooked together in series). If it seems like it is arcing and melting spots into the terminal rings when they contact the posts, it is likely that you are wiring it up incorrectly. Make sure your input voltage is between 30 and 60 volts. Make sure you're wiring the input side to the batteries and the output side to whatever 12v device you're wanting to power.

Probably your battery is dead and cannot be charged. Usually, the 25% LED should be solid and jump to the 50% LED (flashing) and so on until all LEDs are solid, then the battery is fully charged.

I measured the output of mine plugged in to my motorcycle connection. 12.97 volts going in from the battery, output 5.1 volts so the spec from the Battery Tender website is incorrect.

Not sure, but I remember that mine blinked in a way that I thought strange. But it did charge properly, so maybe just try it out and see if it works ok!
