The Deltran Battery Tender Junior is a popular brand and model of battery maintainer for Spyder owners. I have one and have been pleased with it so far. Friend of mine has one and it stopped working. The led was flashing green at a fast rate. No matter if connected to a battery or not. Not the normal slow flash green when 80% charged. No voltage on the output. So a search on the internet told me a capacitor was bad on the circuit. So I ordered some from Amazon. A bag of a 100. I only needed 1. Oh well. The original was a 25volt 47 micro farad. I ordered 50 volt 47 micro farad. They came today and I replace the capacitor. It works. The hardest part of the of the job was finding my soldering iron.

I hope this helps if yours fails.
