my load tester wouldnt work and it was the same as this one. do i need to switch it to 12 volts or something for it to work? if so how do i do that?

@nico27004 maybe your battery is just completely dead, it just has a different range for 6 volt systems, no change required

the "GREEN LIGHT" is nothing more than the "WATER LEVEL" , nothing to do with amount of charge in any way !

Sometimes the battery is 12 or 13 volts, but has no power to start the engine.
