[QUOTE="JL8Jeff, post: 476969, member: 12995"] Try topping off the battery on the charger with nothing else connected to it. See if it holds around 12.6 volts sitting by itself. It does sound like your regulator/rectifier is bad and not charging but I'm not sure if the OMC stuff works the same as Mercury so check the manuals to see what the testing procedure is to verify it's good or bad. I think you need a multimeter that can test diodes to test it. Here's a link Jim posted previously to the manuals https://www.tinboats.net/manuals/ [/QUOTE]
