how big is the charger??
So, I got my rig back from 'my guy'. No batteries issues, both checked out at 12.9 and 13.3 for load. The charger is functioning well.,..no issues there. When I got it home and plugged her in, and four hours later, ALL FOUR lites on the head of the TM battery test function lit up. He said he disconnected everything and let it sit for an hour, cleaned all the connections, and re-attached it all, and it worked like a charm..Does anyone belive in "crappie Gremlins"??? I think that is what I was dealing with. All seems well now...time will tell. Thanks for all the GR
So, I got my rig back yesterday from "my guy". Batteries checked out fine...12.9 and 13.3 on the load for each. The on-board charger is working fine. He disconnected everything and let it sit for awhile. Cleaned all connectors and re-attached everything . I got her home and plugged the charger up and four hours later I had slid green across the board on my charger and the TM battery test function showed ALL four red lites lit up like a Christmas tree. Does anyone believe in "Crappie Germlins"??? I think I do. Ready to give her a 'test run' soon. Thanks for all the GREAT responses, guys, really appreciate the time and attention you took to help an ole boy out.
He did tell me that hooking up another 12 v battery, neg to neg, pos to pos, would give me a "strong 12", as he called it. NO addl power but nearly twice the run time. That MAY be a consideration for another day. Thanks again fellas. I owe yawl a cold one.:)

sorry for the double post....woopsie!!
ha ha.....senior moment....don't worry about it :biggrin
I have learned any time you have issues with intermediate readings or power supply, the first thing you should do is CLEAN all your connections. Even if they are not corroted your connections can get a dull haze on them and that little bit can cause issues. Just take a wire brush and get the shine back on connector. Good idea to do this as a periodic maintanace
Thanks, good idea. Shoot, I was hopin the 'gremlin' idea might steal some of DD's BigFoots thunder. Oh well.....swing and a miss!!lol
