Hi

Anybody able to help with a Genie battery charger that is flashing a fault code?

Its a Genie HB 600 - 24B charger
Genie part number on the charger is 96211 & its made by Signet systems inc.

Plug the charger in to the mains & it goes through its start up disco with the led's on the front.

You can then hear a relay click inside the charger for a second then it clicks off & the charger then beeps, the 50% 75% & 100% leds on the front flash together 8 times.

The charger then just keeps repeating this cycle of relay clicking in then out & 8 flashes of the leds.

Checked the red & black output leads from the charger, there intact.
I cant see a fuse on the charger unless its inside the unit, I havent had the top of yet.

So, can anyone tell me what error 8 flashes is please?

Cheers in advance
