Troubleshooting
Problem: Low or no output voltage from the power inverter
Answer: Check connections between the 12 Volt power source and the power inverter as detailed in “Connect
the DC Input Cables.”
Answer: Check that the power inverter is turned ON and that the device to be powered is turned ON.
Answer: Check polarity of DC connection to ensure it is correct. If a reverse connection has been made, most
likely the inverter fuses have been blown. Replace fuses. Damage to the inverter caused by a reverse
polarity condition is not covered under the warranty.
Answer: Using the incorrect type of voltmeter to test the output voltage. To accurately measure the the output
voltage of your SOLAR Power Inverter, use only a voltmeter identified as a “True RMS” reading
voltmeter.
Problem: Fault LED ON
Answer: The voltage of the 12 Volt power source may have dropped below 10 Volts – check 12 Volt power
source voltage and recharge as needed.
Answer: The device being powered is placing a power demand on the inverter that is beyond its operating
capacity – use a higher capacity power inverter or cease powering that device using your power
inverter.
Answer: The inverter is too hot – allow the inverter to cool. Check for adequate ventilation. If problem persists,
reduce the the load on the power inverter to the rated continuous power.
Problem: Low Battery Alarm on Continuously
Answer: The voltage of the 12 Volt power source may have dropped below 10.5 Volts – check 12 Volt power
source voltage and recharge as needed.
Answer: Poor or weak 12 Volt power source – recharge or replace the battery.
Answer: Inadequate power delivery from the 12 Volt power source – check the connections between
the 12 Volt power source and the power inverter (see “Connect the DC Input Cables”).
Problem: Poor Television/Audio Device Reception
Answer: Refer to “Suggestions When Using Your Power Inverter to Power Television and Audio Devices”
section within this Operator’s Manual.
