Ctek mxs 5.0
Hi all, i have my car on a ctek 5.0 charger while it's sat in the garage. A week or so ago I checked the unit and the led display was lit to stage 7 which i think is correct - yesterday however it had dropped back to stage 3 - is this normal or is the battery duff? It a fairly new battery I believe.
Any help appreciated. Cheers, Rick H |

Thanks guys, power has been constant and i only opened the boot to unplug the charger to move the car.
I just went through the cars documentation and can't find anything relating to the battery so I think I'm dreaming it's a newish unit. I read a lot of adverts during the search for a car ! Will plug it back in and check again in a week or so. Thanks again |

No problem - that's what it will do as the car is stationary.
Unlocking and opening the car will cause the blip.

If you have it on winter setting it will go through all stages of the deep cycling mode to keep the battery in good condition and keep going round and round. As Shimmy said it shouldn't reset itself if you open the car or the boot, mine certainly doesn't. Last edited by phoenixcsl; 27-10-2013 at 10:14 PM. |
