Hello all. Thanks in advance for any guidance. I think I may need a new charger but thought I'd seek some advice before buying one. I have a 2007 Basscat Puma with a Pro Pak 30 amp 3 bank charger. I've had the boat since new and the charger is original to the boat. Never had a problem till today. Plugged in the charger, got 3 red lights as is normal then I normally get 3 green lights shortly thereafter since I keep the batteries charged. Today I got 3 red lights then banks 1 and 2 turned green but bank 3 went blank. I charged battery 3 on a separate charger to see if that would help. It did not. Then I swapped banks 2 and 3 to see if the problem followed the battery or the charger. No matter how I wired the charger bank 3 would go blank after the red lights did their initial check of the system. So, does this mean the charger has gone bad? If so I understand NOCO purchased Pro Pak and now owns the brand. Would a NOCO Genius 30 amp 3 bank charger fit in the same foot print in my bilge as the Pro Pak? Not really interested in rearranging the bilge to accommodate a different brand unless I have to. And so that you know this problem didn't exist Wednesday when I plugged in the charger and the batteries all check out fine. They are charged and all 3 show 13.76 volts on my digital volt meter whether the charger is plugged in or not. Thanks again for any input.
