Dead on board charger??

[njTom]

OK need some help here. I have a 2 season old BPS XPS 5/5 2 bank charger that seems to not be working. No power light, no charging light, no ready to fish light. I checked the in-line fuses and they are fine. I did check my outside outlet also!!
Is this thing done? Is there something else I should try?
Thanks for any input

Tom

it might be an internal fuse... best thing you can do is contact BPS - they might even surprise you and tell you to send that one in for a new one...

If you have a close BPS store, you might just be able to take it back in there to them (without the box). Tell them it was given to you as a gift so you don't know when it was purchased.

I'd try to take it back. I've heard umpteen horror stories about BPS onboard chargers

Thanks for the replies Russ and DG. I will call BPS on Monday and see what they suggest.( no BPS close to me 3hr drive) In the mean time is their a way for me to check if the charger is working and its not just the bulbs that are out?

Pretty sure they are LED lights... there's about a .0001% chance all of them burned out and its still functioning

Not sure about the charger you mentioned but I have a BearCat scanner that died on me one time. I took the cover off and there was a fuse inside that had blown. So, I second the notion that it may be an internal fuse.

I would contact them and be honest about when you purchased it if it is out of warranty so be it.
walmart HAD a no questions asked return policy with the batteries but dishonest people caused the to disappear.
they may offer you a replacement.
