Hi
I’ve had a 500w inverter for about 18 months. It’s been used on a daily basis. I live full time in a motorhome.
it’s been working fine until recently where it now starts rebooting even under zero load. Just turned on with nothing connected.
Any ideas why?
Is this a fault that can be fixed?
I bought Victron and spent the extra money for value and I’ll be slightly miffed if it’s failed already.

Sorry forgot to add the error message is low voltage even though the battery pack is fully charged!
Hello Mathew, Check your cabling, fused, bolds. If you have a VE.direct of Bluetooth connection available, check the Voltage reading when giving some load to the inverter. If the voltage goes down (down), this points to a bad cable/connection.
Let us know how this goes.
regards, Rob
Do you have any idea what might cause my cable to go black?
I’ve checked my cables and all is good. No fuse issues.
Literally nothing changed then sudden reboots.
is it possible that a component has failed?
It's always possible that an internal component has failed.
If you can't find the problem yourself you should ask a local installer for help or contact the dealer from whom you bought the inverter.
I think you were right!!! Fingers crossed that further testing will prove that but I found the end of the POSITIVE cable going into the inverter was black. Do you know what would cause this?
I’ve also uploaded a photo of the cable cut back and shiny!!
