Hi all
Duffer questions alert! The inverter stopped working a few days ago. I don't know if it's related, but it was a very sunny day - the batteries were fully charged and the solar panels were chucking it out at full whammy.
It's been working well for the three years since we bought the boat. So now the inverter red light and warning beeper sounds when I power it up, and no power comes out. Wiring to and from the inverter seem to be fine.
Pics attached. I don't know if anyone can identify the kit.
Is it likely the inverter couldn't tolerate the "more than 12v" on the house circuit? Should I look for a circuit breaker in the inverter itself? Or should I assume I've fried it and needs replacement...if the latter, should I do anything to safeguard the input voltage parameter?
Thanks in advance.
