Open it up and have a look inside, John. If it's like my Schumacher 2/10/50
unit, you'll be amazed at how simple it is. There's a very good chance that all
that's wrong is one of the diodes has shorted; at least that was all that was
wrong with mine when it was given to me. I fixed mine with some old alternator
diodes and it's worked fine ever since.
