SmartSolar MPPT 150/45 - Tr restart without app

Hello, my charge controller (MPPT 150/45 - Tr) shows an internal error. Hence, my battery of my camper van will not be charged by the solar modules anymore. I tried to connect my phone with the charge controller, but since the dongle is hidden somewhere, I couldn't find or establish any connection. Therefore, I want to restart the charge controller manually. Does anybody know, how I can do that? (Or may know an alternativ solution for my problem?)

I would be thankful for any help or advice!

Maybe try disconnecting the battery & solar power to it (preferably via a switch / breaker or fuse removal) and wait for a good 5 to 10min before reconnecting.

It may actually have a real internal hardware issue or blown internal fuse (not user replaceable) - in this case it may need to be returned.

Finally I was able to try your proposal, Mark. I disconnected the battery from the rest of my camper van. Somehow the charge controller got still electricity. I have no clue how, because it was a very cloudy day, so I guess there was no energy from the solar as well.

I there a way to plug out all the power supply directly at the charge controller? Unfortunately I cant reach the charge controller very well, so I cant realy see the cables going in.


Thanks for your help!
