Re: charger wont charge at high amps anymore
Check the pack voltage before the charge,
And again 1 hour after . It could be U are driving less so it need less . |

Knowing the above, about the only thing left is a shorted winding in the transformer. Have a dealer check it ! Good luck and keep us posted . |

Re: charger wont charge at high amps anymore
All charger test are different , do you have the manual for the charger.
If no then post everything written on the charger, manufacturer, model type ...etc. Everything ? |

Re: charger wont charge at high amps anymore
Have you verified that your amp gauge is correct?

Re: charger wont charge at high amps anymore
Check battery voltage while charging, that will tell you if the charger is working correctly.
12 amps is good, or the meter might be getting stuck at the 12 amp mark. |
