Onboard Battery Charger Readout?

[Pete Collin]

I just bought a Lund, want to take it on a test run this afternoon.  It has an onboard battery charger.  I plugged it in to top off the Minn Kota batteries.  But it has no lights, gauges, or readouts of any kind.  How do I know if the thing's even working?  Tried googling a manual but they all show a unit with lights.  It's a Promariner Pro Sport 12.

Might want to look here Pete. https://all-guidesbox.com/model/promariner/prosport12.html

I don't trust that site because they want you to download an "exe" file to view the manuals.  That could be a virus or something.  A PDF file would be the document itself.

Pete you could take an ohm meter dc volts to test what it’s putting out when you turn it on. They are usually 5-10 amps.  Look for any inline fuses if you don’t see any voltage.

Thanks Frogger!  I'll give it a try.  Took the boat out yeasterday for a test drive.  Everything functioned well, and the boat rides awesome.  It will feel like fishing from a sofa.  Of course, when I pulled the boat out, I noticed that both trailer tires' sidewalls are severely cracked and dry rotted, probably one trip away from blowing out.  Oh, well!

I would make sure I had power going to the charger.
