....fully understand, and can test & repair, electronics ?
i have a 20amp statpower (Xantrex) american charger which appears to have stopped working.
its not a current model so nowt on the web.
its been in the garage since removing it from the RV last november.
plugged it in to charge a car battery today and, without load, it light up showing it detected 'no battery'.
connected the battery, switched back on and NOWT ! no lights, no output.
checked the battery and it is very dead....Zero volts.
should have checked that first oh:
3 internal fuses..rev polarity, overload, short circuit....checked with multimeter and all ok.
230v getting to input .
may have been damp inside.
what i need is a techy to have a look at it and see if its repairable.
worth around £230 so dont want to scrap it.
anyone going to newark who could take it home and have a look please?
