Discussion:
dead batteries

I had new batteries installed by Crown in December or January. My guys forgot to plug the stacker in and now the batteries are dead. I tried to put them on trickle charge but nothing. Is there possibly a trick to get these batteries to charge without calling Crown out again?

Showing items 1 - 2 of 2 results.
are you saying 1 12v battery attached to 2 of the 6volts? and then probably do it again for the other 2 batteries? And wire them in series or parallel?

If you have a jump pack, you can place the clips across 2 batteries (12v) and jump it. That should get the voltage high enough for the on-board charger to start.
That all depends on how low the voltage is and if there are any possible dead batteries.
