Can a Ctec damage a D4?

As title, can a Ctec XS25000 damage the electrics on a D4 when left on all day while being worked on? My D4 is half dead, it will lock and unlock, interior lights come on, message on screen flashes for a few seconds “start engine battery charge is low” but nothing else works totally dead, checked engine earth it looks good and continuity with multi meter.

A few years back my ctek mx7 stopped charging my D4 ....... then it started discharging it. Shocked

Nothing wrong with the D4 as I had it checked out.
And nothing wrong with the ctek, as I still keep my summer runabout permanantly connected to it.

Like many good relationships, they just fell out and stopped talking to each other. Confused



there's a long thread in the vaults - search ctek and ronp as author.

And the proper application of any charger is clearly laid out in the owner's manual.

Maybe so, but what is the solution?-Iid tool says no faults

Just out of curiosity had a look at how much it would cost for my old 06MY D3’s manual. What good would a warranty booklet be? Laughing Laughing

Sorry I thought you meant Ctec manual Bow down but reading both I have not done anything wrong just using the charger as I have done for the last few years.
The input voltage of the Multi xs 2500 is 14.6 volts, no more than the alternator so that hasn’t solved the cause of the problem.
