Thor Tellaro 2022 Balmar monitor stop working

Thor Tellaro 2022 Balmar monitor stop working

Week 1 of our first trip with our new RV.

The Balmar monitor no more working.

No more menu when pressing the button.

It doesn't light, stay black with 100% SOC.

Help! What to do?

Welcome to the forum. I see no responses to you so far. I am not familiar with the Balmar battery monitor unit specifics (or if there are various versions even), but it would seem like yours is dead .....as in not getting any power to operate the display for a start. Since this is a new RV you should be able to return it to the selling Dealer for a warranty repair I expect? Sometimes that means a very long wait for an appointment.
"Assuming" you have the SG200 unit, the other approach would be to find the smart shunt unit that the Balmar visual readout unit connects to (likely mounted near the House batteries).......and look for a small fuse holder wired in series from the +12vdc House battery terminal to the smart shunt unit that “may” have opened (blown) for some reason. I assume this small fuse actually powers the Balmar unit. You can also check to make sure the interconnect cable from the smart shunt to the Balmar unit is firmly connected at both ends. Failing the simple stuff.....a Dealer repair may still be required. Attaching a link to a Balmar manual that has a basic schematic that may (or may not apply) to the unit you have. Bonne chance!

Thank you Javelin for your answer. I have been able to restart the SG200 by turning the power of the unit off then on and after by pressing the Balmar button during 30 seconds. The monitor went back to life !!
