  • 60A MPPT EPEVER charge controller displaying "night mode"



    I noticed that my MPPT 60A EPEVER charge controller has displaying "night mode" symbol on the LCD display for some days, also the solar panel icon on the charge controller is blank with no blinking on it.
    It has been on the night mode for about 3days now, both during peak sunny time and night.

    Please any suggestions.

    It seems to think the solar panel is not connected. Do you measure voltage across the terminals where the panel is connected?

      It was working fine from last year all through this year until 4 days ago when it went on night mode, I haven't measured voltage where the panels(6) are connected, however at the inlet into the charge controller from the panels, the voltage reads 0 in the multimeter

        0 voltage (during daylight) means either the panels are short circuited, or not connected at all. If you disconnect then from the charge controller and measure the voltage across the leads, do you get voltage? If not, that rules out the charge controller as the problem and you need to troubleshoot the PV system and wiring.

          When i measure from the leads, there is no voltage, guess from your suggestions, I have to check the PV systems and wiring

            Yep. Next place to look is probably where you bring the 6 panels together, and see what is going on there.
