General Troubleshooting Guidelines

This section will help you narrow down the source of any problem you may encounter. Please read the following troubleshooting steps:

1.Check for a Warning or Fault message on the SCP. See “Warning Messages” on page 49 and “Fault Messages” on page 50 for descriptions of these messages and the specific actions to take. If a message is displayed, record it before doing anything further.

2.As soon as possible, record on the form, “Information About Your System” on page 69, the conditions at the time the problem occurred. These details should include the following as well as any other information asked for on page page 4:

Loads the Freedom SW 3000 was running or attempting to run

Battery condition at the time of failure (voltage, state of charge, for example), if known

Recent sequence of events (for example, charging had just finished, we disconnected shore power as were preparing to leave the RV park, but the inverter didn’t come on)

Any known unusual AC input factors such as low voltage or unstable generator output

Extreme conditions which may have existed at the time (temperature, vibrations, moisture, for example).

3.Attempt the solution indicated in Table 8 or Table 9.
