10. Troubleshooting
Refer to this section for common issues and their solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No AC Output / Inverter Not Turning On | Low battery voltage, loose connections, inverter switch off, internal fuse blown. | Check battery voltage (must be 12V-15V). Tighten all DC connections. Ensure inverter switch is ON. Check external/internal fuses (if accessible and safe). |
| Low Output Power / Inverter Shuts Down | Overload, overheating, low battery voltage. | Reduce connected load. Allow inverter to cool down. Recharge or replace battery. |
| Fan Not Running | Normal operation (fan activates only when needed), fan malfunction. | The fan is intelligent and only runs when the temperature exceeds 45°C or load is high. If inverter is hot and fan is still off, contact support. |
| Error Code on LCD | Indicates a specific fault (e.g., over-voltage, under-voltage, overload, short-circuit, overheating). | Consult the inverter's specific error code list (if provided in a separate document) or contact customer support with the displayed code. Address the underlying issue (e.g., reduce load for overload, check battery for voltage issues). |
