Powermax boondocker charger problem

So this behavior is new? YOu've done this with depleted batteries before and it seeked 14.8v and held it for as long as you ran the generator, and now it does not?

My friend has the 100 amp adjustable model and the Pot drifted a bit after the first use. I had marked 14.7 and 13.6 on the dial unloaded, but after the first use these marks were out of whack when unloaded.

But the new markings have not swayed.

I've been charging with the Powermax for about 2 months , Its always worked but just acted a little screwy sometimes , Normally I adjust it up to 14.8 v and the voltmeter reading goes up along with me moving the dial ,,,, but there's been 3 or 4 times when I turn up the dial to the 14.8 v mark but the voltage reading doesn't follow instantly , the voltage does normally finally go up to were I sit it (14.8v)
.
Today when I set the dial to 14.8 v the voltmeter reading didn't move at all and didn't even act like it was trying to move.

Fuses look good
I disconnected it from the batteries and plugged it in to the wall 110 volt,,, when I flip the Powermaxes on/off switch to on it illuminates , voltmeter doesn't turn on at all.

Voltmeter does work when the batteries are connected.
