Does the repeater still work on AC supply?
I ask because there's another failure condition which requires power cycling the RX and TX chassis's with a external FTM-400 control head. I had one on the shelf for months that wouldn't power up and that was the simple fix. Unfortunately no power button populated on the internal pair of FTM-400 control head boards used to drive the repeater's front panel.

See post 211955, if you break the DC lines with a high current 120VAC relay then you don’t have to remove any fuse or worry about the charger inducing noise. The battery will charge when AC is present and will be isolated from the repeater then will connect the battery when AC fails.?
