Battery Charger problems

Featured Replies

uys,

I need some advice I have a Schumacher battery charger that got wet and will not power up? I plug it in and nothing. Is there a fuse inside? Any help would be great!

I have an older Schumaker and it has an automatic breaker inside.  If it gets hot, because a battery is severly drained it will shut off sometimes, I suppose that moisture could cause that too.  I just unplug it and usually after a few minutes you will hear a click and it starts to work again.   Sometimes it might shut down a couple of times until the rate is decreased.  As far as wet I have left mine in the rain, carried it in the back of the truck durring storms and stored it in the boat.  It has never quite for long.  I do let it dry out completely before plugging it back in.  The newer ones may have a circuit that could be damaged I suppose.  It might not hurt to blow it lightly out with air.
