Multiplus 12/500 no light not functioning

Dear forum


my Multiplus 12/500 stopped working. I do not know why (it was running, no manual changes).


When I provide the MP with 13.5V DC from a power supply I can see, that it uses 1.6W. I can measure the voltage between the positive input terminal and the transformator (13.3V DC). But there is no light and I can not see the MP through USB / MK3 interface. No other parts are connected to it.


Does someone has an idea / clue?


Thank you very much in advance,


Christian

Does someone know if this device just has one exchangeable fuse (the one which sits directly at the positive 12V DC input terminal)?

I checked the capacitors (just looking on the surface etc.) - I can't see some obvious damage.

Could it be that the flash storage of the microcontroller is damaged?

Sorry, but you need to contact the dealer and probably return it for service/repair.

It may be cheaper to replace it.

Use the where to buy link on the victron site. It will show suppliers in the area that are repair centers.

They're only serviceable by Victron. Green Akku have been good to me. Empfehlenswert.
