Hi all,
I have a MEP-002A that is our Backup Whole-House power souce. I last ran it with a load about a month and a half ago during a power outage. At that time it ran for about 3 hours without issue. I normanly fire it up every other month just to keep the batteries topped off. About two weeks ago I added a NOCO 5X2 battery charger/optimizer/maintainer to better maintain the batteries. Today, I went out to fire the 002A up to confirm all was good but it would not crank over at all.
There is 24.5v at the batteris, power to the heater, the prime and to the Control Panel but no crank...I don't even get the clicking that you get from the battery voltage being too low. The batteries are Costco Interstate 51R's purchased 3/2015.
I don't know where to start with the troubleshooting so any help would be greatly appreciated.
