Why is my battery not making a good connection?
Every electrical circuit needs to create a way for electricity to get to the device you are powering and also for the electricity to continue on back to the battery. If one of the wires delivering power or return power is not making a good connection, your electrical component will not work. Bad connections can happen for a variety of reasons.
What causes an electrical component to not work?
If one of the wires delivering power or return power is not making a good connection, your electrical component will not work. Bad connections can happen for a variety of reasons. As wires carry electricity they get hot, so it is possible after a lot of use for a connection to melt and no longer make contact.
What should I do if my battery converter is not working?
Unplug the power source and then take a reading at the outgoing leads from the fuses for your circuits. If you don’t have any power there then the converter is bad and needs to be replaced.

When does a car battery have a problem?
Battery Issues: If the vehicle does not start or even try to turn over there is a very good chance the battery is the problem. Most vehicles have a Battery warning light that will come on if there is an issue with the battery or one of the other electrical system components. In many cases a drained battery is due to the lights being left on.
