I bought the Daly 80 A-200A BMS (new) for my system, to be sure it was compatible with the LifePo4 12V 200 aH battery I bought from the same manufacturer -- "BLS Battery Official Store". I built my system and tested it out and everything worked perfect. Since we weren't yet ready to take our trailer out on the road, it sat there for several months. This week I got in it and turned on the 12V fan for a few minutes and then suddenly it went off. I tried all the lights and other 12V items and they wouldn't go on either.
So I got my multi-meter out and started testing to try to find the issue. No blown fuses or loose wires. Through a process of elimination I discovered the issue was that the BLM was not permitting the system to function. I tested the battery and found that it had the same charge as it had months ago: 13V+.
Do I need to replace the BMS or is there something I don't understand about it that I need to address?
