Battery charger issue

Called minn Kota and they were no help surprisingly. I’ve had good luck in the past with their support.

I plugged my trolling battery in last night and all three lights on my charger illuminated and the charger makes a humming noise. I have the yellow charging light, red check conn light, and green charged light.

Is the fuse blown in the positive cable or is this thing finally toast.

Yeah I called minn Kota and it’s toast. I pulled out my multimeter and tested my battery as well as the charger. The charger was surging crazy high. It lasted over ten years. Was a good run.

Ten years! I'd say you got your money's worth out of it. =D>
