    Change your leads for 24 hours. You probably have a bad battery.

    Did you check the fuse on the charger leads going to the batteries?

    You're supposed to get a red light for a bad battery on the MK charger.

    My Dual Pro did that and it was one bad cell in one of the batteries. New don't make them bullet proof but it should.

    Check your charger to make sure it is putting out right amps on charge. We had a 3 bank mk and one lead was bad. If your bought new gel batteries make sure the charger willcharge them, not all chargers will charge amg battries.

    Check the batteries with a amp meter not plugged in to the charger. After plugging in the charger see if the read 5 or 10 amps higher depending on the charger. If all batteries read 5 or 10 amps higher the charger is fine. Batteries sometimes new ones will be bad. I didn't figure this out Nic did when I was having issues with my cranking battery. I can get Exide batteries for 68 bucks through Nics work if you need one. 31 series if I remember correctly.
    We killed 'em here yesterday.
