Questions and answers
My charger still works but the display screen is almost not visible
A possible cause for the display screen of a Hawker MOD3 Series charger to be almost not visible is low display brightness. The manual mentions that the display brightness can be adjusted, so if it is set too low, the screen may appear dim.
