No power on load on PMW Controller Jul 25, 2016 15:32:40 GMT -8

Hi,
I just got a 100w Mono-kit. All seems to be working okay for the panels & battery. But there is no light on for the load side. I have connected a small volt meter in line & no read out. I have checked DC output with a Fluke & no reading.
What can be the problem, bad controller?

Regards
Doug

So if you are testing the output of the 100w panel and you have power there, do you have a fuse inline before the controller? Just asking

Where did you connect the in line volt meter before or after? What is the reading of the battery? Does it have a full charge?

So, human error on my part. Thank You Doug
