We are leaving for our Norfork trip Saturday morning. Working on the boat yesterday and I wanted to check one of my ballast pumps. So I turned the key on and I have absolutely no power anywhere, not even a faded beep. I check the red battery on off switch and it was left on for probably the last six weeks. I have an On-Board Battery charger and I assume due to the recent barrage of storms outlet in the wall for my onboard charger was not working.
So I plugged my onboard charger into a different outlet and the charger is lit up.
Charged yesterday afternoon from about 3 o’clock till now, 16+ hours.
Went to turn on and check this morning and absolutely no power. I put a volt tester on the battery and both batteries were down around .2–.4
I would think that after 16 hours on the charger, it should have at least picked up some sort of charge?
I do not think the batteries are more than three years old. I disconnected the cranking battery from the charger and hooked up a regular charger to it.
Does it sound like my batteries are totally done for? Does it sound like there may be another issue somewhere else?
