Trickle Charger Failure

Recommended Posts

One of my Yuasa 900ma chargers is not going to green anymore. It just stays on yellow. Do they wear out? I switched bikes to be sure that it is the charger, not a bike battery. In the years that I've used these, I never had this happen before.

I don't have a Yuasa, but have a BMW /Deltran type maintainer. I too had just the light stay on and not do it's normal "charging". After taking it aprt, I found that one wire had come loose inside the charger. After reconnecting it, 4 years later it's still going strong.

 

So, you might open it up and make sure all the wires are still attached.

Also check it on a known good battery (measure the voltage at the battery).

If the battery does not reach it's upper float voltage anymore, then the charger might never change to green.

As I said, I cross-checked it with another bike and battery charger. The problem is the Yuasa. Now, I'll look inside.
