If it's not connected to the fence the meter is in the green and it pops 7,000 volts. When connected the meter goes red and no pop even on terminals

Always make sure you have nothing touching the wires,not weeds either.I have a ground rod and an isolator.It has worked well since I purchased it without any problems.

We have had the same trouble over the years with a few different chargers. This one we have had for about 12 years and it has never been the chargers that was the problem. Aside from it shorting out some were, we had trouble with the ground not working right. So we ran a wire from the ground to about 10 t-posts. Then when we clean our stock tank we take a 5 gallon bucket and dump water on the ground around the ground rod and all the t-post. This seems to help a lot. Not sure if this is good for the charger but it was the only thing that seemed to work.

the fence is grounding out. you will have to walk the fence and find were it is shorting out or grounded out. make sure the hot wire is not touching any other steel or metal this will ground it out.

I agree that Robert's question may perhaps pointing to the potential reason. Grounding could be the key. Perhaps a portion of the fence wire is touching one of the metal poles (for example, not connected properly to an insulator on the metal fence post, accidentally touching the post; another example - if you are bridging two wires to power both, reviewing your grounding at the unit).

The fence is most likely shorted to ground somewhere. You will have to inspect the fence for the fault and simply repair it. It could be a bad insulator, or it could be as simple as a lot of tall grass and or weeds grounding the fence out over the entire span of wire. The bottom line is, the hot wire that passes through the insulators cannot touch anything but the fence charger and the insulators; if it touches so much as a wooden post it will likely short out and cause just the scenario you describe here. Good luck with it.

There is a button on the back make sure thays is press down and if you have a multi meter check the nc with the neg end of the multi meter and the positve on the 12v in see what u get

Use a volt ohm meter set to continuity and touch the red probe to one prong and the black probe to the other prong. If the meter reads open or over load it is bad.

I'm not happy about the fact that there is no paperwork. You may have figured out the basis: +V is 12vdc in and GND is the ground. Terminal 1=N.O., 2=Com, 3=N.C. for relay "C" the rest follow 4,5 & 6 for relay "A"; 7,8 & 9 for relay "D" and 10,11 &12 for relay "B" . Jumper 4&3 for momentary (Only ON while button is pressed) jump 1&2 for press ON and hold ON then press again to release relay. Button S1 I haven't figured out. I will. Experiment, you can't blow it up.

I don't know for sure about the electric fence--the purpose of this is to keep a car or similar battery charged so it doesn't go dead while vehicle is idle for extended periods. I keep a car in FL 5 mos out of the year and use this so I don't have a dead battery. I can't see this powering a fence--nor keeping a 12v auto battery charged against the output to charge a fence. Not much help, I know. Good luck with this.

If the unit is off, and meter is stuck in the red that is definitely not normal. If it's only stuck in the red when on, and nothing plugged in to input that is also not normal and unit should be returned. If it is stuck in red only when on and input instrument or mic is plugged in, look for an overload or short, possibly a wiring incompatibility to input device.

not wired correctlymake sure to test the polarity and voltage of the post that you attached it toIf not the full voltage of 36 or 48 whatever your cart is it will give that orange/red indicatorIf no voltage meter available just start going to different battery post

YesVoltage side, red wire to +5Vdc supply and black to 5V negative side.meter will read 5.0VdcThen On the current side, red wire to +2Vdc, and load + side.and load negative side to yellow wire.Black wire to 2V negative side. now the meter will read 2V load current.

Hi. This is what I would look at. I would start with checking your Fosmons' power adapter. Is it plugged in? Is it delivering 5 volts? Is the power light on the Fosmon lit and not dim? If so then you can check the Toslink cable on the Fosmon end. Is the red light coming through it? Did the Toslink cable seat down properly in both devices? They kindov pop when they are fully inserted.

Red Positive goes in the far right jack and the Negative in the center jack. Just a little insight since the meter injects a signal to charge up the capacitor it makes a great Signal Injector also right nice for Audio circuitry trouble shooting. Not a bad meter for the price. Ken

when the battery is discharged to plug it remains completely cagarce red to turn green

With three failures in a row I would (from 30 years of being an industrial electrician) I would inspect your wall sockets. Sometimes these are just connected with the "push" in cheapo deal(It's common in cheaply built homes) instead of the much better wire wrapped and secured by the screw terminal type. I've dealt with situations, even though I would get 120 volts on the meter, things wouldn't run (in this case a forced air furnace). It was an old home and by installing new receptacles and securing the wires properly to the terminals I cured the problem. Good luck.

Simply hook up the negative and positive and plug something in to test. If you don't get see the device being charged, reverse the wires. Due to the low voltage, you won't damage anything.

You should be able to use a volt meter to check the feed voltage that was connected to the old t-stat. Remove the t-stat from the wall and check the voltage.

The black goes to ground the red wire goes to positive on the high beam. You have to find the high beam wire first. Good luck.

It can under the following conditions: The circuit is NOT powered-on. The cap to be measured is discharged manually by shorting it for 1-2 seconds before being measured/tested.

Take a digital Volt meter and it will tell you if it is positive of negative.Don
