Yes they can very easily be repaired
Open it up and take a look close look at the large Capacitors
If any signs of anything abnormal replace the part
Parts available at DigiKey and typically less than $5.00

I think F03 is "open cell or sulfated", mine does that occasionally on my lawn mower battery and I just start the charge cycle over and at a higher charge rate and everything is fine. I have 2 of these chargers and they both do that. Must be a characteristic of them. ๐

Could try and fool it back to being normal. Start it and then clamp on? When on and showing F03, change amp settings up and down and turn on and off, change battery type.
Sometimes with the old 27DCs after they were FUL and I wanted to do more, I would get an F03 but not if I just used the 2 amp setting and not the higher settings. Once it started ok in 2 I could then ramp it up. Seems like F03 is for almost anything, not just for what it is listed for. Weird.
