Mosquito Magnet® Liberty Plus

Trap will not power up


If the Mosquito Magnet® does not power up, then there may be one of several problems. Here is a list of possible causes of this problem.

Problem How To Check Solution
Battery Failure
Try charging the battery for a full 24 hours and then try to start the trap again.
If you get the same results then you may need to send the unit in for service.
Unable to charge the battery.  
Take the power cord to a local electronics shop or Radio Shack and ask them if they would check it. The power cord should have 8 volts AC, 600 mA.  
If the power cord is not producing 8 volts AC, 600 mA then you will need a replacement. If the power cord is ok then there maybe a problem with the power head.
Battery not properly connected.  
Disconnect the battery and reattach.
If the trap still does not work try charging the trap for a full 24 hours. Also refer to the previous two steps as well.  
Power Head Failure
If you have battery and it has a charge and the trap will still not start then there may be a problem with the power head.  
If you get the same results then you may need to send the unit in for service.
