Pro Mariner charger

rodnreel · 02-14-10, 12:55 AM

I recently bought a Pro Mariner Pro Sport 20 Plus battery charger from Cabelas. This is a 20 amp, 3 bank charger. I have it hooked up to my 2 trolling motor batteries and the cranking battery according to the manual that came with it. The batteries have been fully charged and all the indicator lights come on telling me that's the case....but after a while I noticed the charger started making a continuous buzzing sound. Not exactly sure what's going on and can't find any info on it on Pro Mariner's web site. Anybody got any ideas?

Is it a buzz, or more like a hum?

If it's a hum, it's just the transformer in it. Sometimes they do that.

If it's a buzz, it could still be the transformer causing it, but the sound is probably coming from a loose piece of plastic somewhere inside.

I guess it is more of a humming sound, but it is really high pitched and continuous.
