Current limiting alarm

[btk019]

Looking for help clearing a current limiting alarm for the batteries. The alarm showed up after we replaced the caps in the unit.

I’m assuming you meant the internal capacitors have been replaced? If so are they of the same capacitance? A higher operating voltage is fine along with lower ESR, high temperature rating.

If they are not the same capacitance then start there. If the capacitors were replaced due to a fault what was it? If the capacitors are the correct value / voltage rating there’s an obvious component fault still present such as a power transistor.

Please indicate the model, serial number of the unit in question with a photo. It should show the entire mother board, front and back of the units housing.

Brain Dead: This procedure will attempt to reset and clear any possible errors in the units processor. Disconnect AC Mains, disconnect the batteries, press and hold the power button.

You may hear a click & beep confirming the process is complete. You may not hear anything so be aware.

Report back if the fault is gone . . . 

NOTE: Before attempting the brain dead procedure gather any logs, error codes, and past faults and relay the same here.

The unit is a MGE 8000 and we replaced the AC caps for end of life.
