Sometimes this will run for 2-3 minutes, and sometimes almost instantly, it just drops back to 0V, and then wont kick back in. The charger makes a constant hum, but doesnt apply Voltage anymore.
Thanks!
I missed all this part as it was below the pic. The converter is not causing that problem. It is an issue with Rectifier or Heatsink (based on which powerdrive you have) or an OBC issue. If the charger is humming but not charging and it is a DS, the fuse is bad at the charge receptacle, but since yours does initially charge and then quit, it makes me think the other suggestions I mentioned.

When you move the Neg to the B- you will have the pack disconnected. This will reset the OBC and may help.
