Hello.

I've had a new battery on the car since March, all has been fine while I have been using the car regularly. I left the car on trickle change for about 4 weeks maybe more and no Battery? on the charger I have noticed that the lights that show charged or uncharged are both out? and the battery condition light is also out?

Is there an inline fuse for the AccuMate and do any of you good people know where it is?

Thank you.

Rod.

No inline fuse on mine only the one in the plug. Guess there could be some surge protector inside the unit though.
Have you checked the plastic push connector for the adaptor is secure?

I had a conditioner hardwired into car.

Mine failed - easy enough check with multi-meter.

Reference to plug is about the fact that newer models have a 2-pin male/female plug system on/close to the unit itself. Worth checking its security.

My Ctek only lasted about 3yrs of continuous use, just failed to give an output after a while. How old is it?

Thanks, yes that's what I was refering to. It gave the option of different ways of connecting, ie mini croc clips, hardwired or cigar lighter.
The good thing is it is also easy to check you have a voltage coming out of the Accumate using a Fluke meter or similar.

I'm not sure about your accumate conditioner some of the others require a 12 volt basis for it to operate, worth checking?
