So this is Wednesday, I hook up this charger I bought. 2 bank Noco Genius mini gen 2. My batteries both had 5 volts. When I hooked it up, my one battery immediately showed 14 volts. The other battery continued to show 5 volts. I let it charge for several hours. The second battery still showed 5 volts.
I looked up a user mannuel for it online. It says the red light means charging. The first battery had green flashing light. The second battery had solid red light. I checked the connections and the fuse, all looked good, but it still showed 5 volts. Checked it again when I got home from work today and it’s still red, but now showing 14 volts. The other battery is showing 13 volts but is now solid green light.
I disconnected battery 2 from the charger and put my regular Schumacher charger on it and it still says it’s charging. So I dont think it’s full or it would be showing the charger in “maintain” status.
Any one have any experience on these that can elaborate on what I’m experiencing?

Did you try swapping the charger leads?
