I am going to send them over the information I have and go from there. I might just sit aside and wait on it until I have someone who knows how to work with these units.
I really wish I knew how to do it properly and had the equipment to work with them.
I will post back after I find out something.

C16, OK.
I was trying to find the C61 and was having a hard time finding it.
I am going to send the pictures and information over to a local computer repair. He and his team are going to take a look at what I have and get back to me on whether it is something they can do or not.
I have been watching a lot of Video Game machine repairs and have a general idea of how to do certain things, but my issue is that I don't have the equipment to troubleshoot and test, so that kind of puts me out of trying to repair this unit on my own.

To answer your question, Harp, NO.
I never learned or had a need to learn much past battery testing and working on cars.
I sometimes break out my multimeter for my servers or within my network, but I have never sat down and learned hands-on with anything like what this thread is about.

redwire[USER="29541"]redwire[/USER] were you wanting the number for the three pins on the back that you wanted DC V from?
If so. This is what is on it
A VO VI (or) A V0 VI (hard to tell if...

I think the first image I sent was a trick of the light. They look the same.

The back of the board, in the red circled area, looks blackened. It does go over the area that has soot on it.

Thanks guys.
And Harp, you are probably right,
I don't know how to troubleshoot this type of equipment. I can narrow down issues with my Dell servers and determine what is wrong with them.
But with this UPS and no workbench or equipment to run tests and do what needs to be done. I'm at a loss.
I have looked to see if there is a repair shop in my area, but there does not seem to be any that deals with this type of equipment. Most are computer and cellphone repairs, not UPS Repairs.
So, at the moment, I am stuck.
But I do appreciate the help you all have...

Hello everyone.
I joined the group to get my Cyberpower PSU back to charging batteries again.
So far, I am truly amazed at how the community comes in, HELPS, and does not try to put you down for not knowing enough about what you are asking for help with.
I've been a member of other forums where the members will downgrade you for asking for help, and I tell you, it is nerve-wracking, to say the least.
Thanks, Badcaps, for having a friendly community of volunteers who actually want to help.
It means a lot to those of us who are either unfamiliar with the electrical...

It seems [USER="414449"]harp[/USER] might have been correct.
After taking everything apart, I found this.
It is burnt, which would explain the black from the back.
The black was soot from the front resistor burning up.
The [SIZE=14px][B]resistor[/B][/SIZE] is [B]R42[/B].
Is it just the [B]resistor [/B]that needs replacing, or is the power relay beside it also?
Could someone please provide a link to purchase this from?
I've marked up the last image to show where everything goes.
I believe I got it marked upright.

Update.
Once I cleaned that black ink or whatever it was from around the solder joint, I put everything back together, and it seems to be charging the batteries now.
When I connected the batteries, they were at 22.2v
They are now at 23.4v.
I will update you all tomorrow on the status.
That is going to be weird if that is the issue.
And I also cleaned the back and as much as possible on the front.
I vacuumed, but I didn't have any air, unfortunately.

It seems the black might have been ink. It would not come off with the hot end of a solder, but it would scrape off with my fingernail. It is just a solder joint in that area with some kind of black ink or pigment on it.
I scrapped it off with my fingernail.
Attached is a better picture of that area before I scrapped it off and a picture after.
The V1 and V2.
Where will this be?...

Hey, Sam.
Thanks for your reply.
I have never done anything like this before, so I am at a complete loss.
(I honestly watched a video on how to test for open and close connections on a fuse, as the last time I tested a circuit for an open was about 20+ years ago.)
With the system unplugged and fuses still on the board, all three showed 0.00 closed.

I am unsure what I am looking for on this part.
I have taken high-resolution pictures that might help spot what I need to check. Also, how do I check to see if it...

Cyberpower cps1500avr not charging batteries
Hello, all.
Cyberpower Battery Backup Unit.
I bought two new ML18-12 batteries through Amazon (They have already refunded my money for the two batteries as we thought the batteries might have been bad.)
When I got them in, they were not fully charged. I connected them to the UPS and waited 24 hours before connecting any networking equipment.
In parallel, they read 24v, but within 24 hours, the meter on the front of the unit dropped from 4 to 3 bars on the battery charge indicator.
Checking the voltage, it was down to 22v.
I quickly removed everything...
