I bought an LCD Angel that had a broken charger for a rather cheap price because I knew I was going to get it ACE'd. The charger is the only thing wrong with it. As far as I knew, only the plug that goes into the trigger frame had been ripped off, so I soldered it back on (Hep had taken a pic and posted it on these forums, so I know I did it right).
However, the charger still doesn't work. I don't really care too much, cause the LCD is soon to be ACE'd, but if I could make it work it'd be nice, as then I might be able to sell it or something.
The problem is, when I plug the charger in the red light doesn't come on, blink, or anything. I've never owned an Angel before, but I'm sure it's supposed to do something. I think the battery meter is supposed to cascade as well when it's charging, and it doesn't do that, so my conclusion is the charger still doesn't work.
Now, if it were the end that plugs into the Angel that was the problem, the red light would still come on, right? I checked the fuse in the end the plugs into the cigarette lighter and it looks fine to me, so I'm really not sure why it won't work. Any ideas?
Oh, and when I turn on the marker the LCD backlight comes on and all the characters turn on (bunch of 8s and words like Timer, dwell, etc), then it just all turns off. I'm assuming this is because the battery is dead (as in, not charged)?
