Trolling motor issue

[Born2fish]

I appreciate everybody's suggestions. I was going through all my wires today and noticed that no matter what battery I put one of the banks of my charger on it says charged. I think I have a bad bank on my charger. How do u go about checking to see. I have a voltage meter but it has a bunch of different settings and I don't know which setting I need to put it on to test that!! Thanks again for all the help!!'

just plug charger in and check each battery to see if its showing 13.xx volts or not. set meter on anything over 12v

Set your voltmeter to V DC it probably has a V with a straight line and maybe a dashed line above that. The other V setting is AC and it will be shown with a wave. Of course if you have a setting for amount, set it to include 12 volts. Measure your voltage prior to turning on the charger then measure afterward.
