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.

remove the batteries and put them back in again, it took a little bit of time to get it going but eventually it took. good luck

Absolutely nothing. That is if your boat has a battery in it. Great piece of equipment.

sounds like the battery is going or needs a full 24 hr charge - check the initial instructions to see if you missed a step

your power leads from the battery are reversed! a dc motor like whats in the boat will run forward or reverse by simply changing the polarity of the leads!

When you plug in the DC jack it disengages the battery circuit. It may be stuck, and not re-engaging the circuit when pulled out. Try plugging in the barrel jack and popping it back out a few times (with no power going to it).

No, the unit should be hooked to your boat battery, via the console instrument panel, or sending unit, check your boat manual for hook updirections. Mine had an older model and i just hooked the new one where the old one hooked up under instrument panel.

If only one motor works, you will need to take it apart to investigate the cause. I have taken apart the boat and can tell you that the two motors are wired to the electronic board midships in its own "waterproof" compartment. A wire may have a poor solder connection or the board is damaged or has a failed component. In general it can be a variety of things, but rarely it is the motor.

it is broken. most likely the controller in the boat has failed. contact seller for refund.

You may need a regular battery charger with instant start mode. I have one of those too, but I prefer the battery tender even if it takes longer, if I can wait. I also have the Tender unit w/a solar panel trickle charging one of my boat's batteries right now. Pete

This worked for me....remove & replace battery on "ship"...turn OFF controller; make SURE the "ship" is as FLAT and LEVEL as possible when re-establishing "signal" between controller and ship. Hope this helped.

The boat has to be physically sitting in water. It completes a circuit. I tested it out by putting it in the bathtub with water in it. Didn't work sitting on the table, but once in the top the motors ran.

Mine worked fine right out of the box after ten or so cranks. You might try placing it in sunlight for twenty min or so to charge the battery. Make sure the little charging LED is lit when you do. If all else fails return it for a new one

I have used boat only one hour at a time, and the battery charge goes from 100% to about 80%
