I got your voicemail.

The Magnum BTS is 100K and the MidNite BTS is 10K (boB will correct me if I am wrong)

If you where to bring it in we could comvert it back to a Midnite BTS or we can send you a Magnum BTS although it sounds like you found the fault.

If you need to call for boB best thing to do is push 5 at the main number and ask for boB. Or email him bob@midnitesolar.com

First shot is the inside of the Classic

Second shot it the Magnum BTS opened , telco wire crimp end cut & ohm & continuity checked .

Third Shot is the open green wire was touching the metal base bolt to a battery stud

Fourth is original bad crimp telco installed & all shorted to try the fans run with max battery temp .




So is the base from the light the same as the classic full ? 
I ask because I'll just swap this Classic into a follow me light on the new upcoming Array & use a light base with this midnight front panel . If this 100K BTS has been reduced into a lite & follow me , I don't need the BTS on this 100k unit.
The Lite is regular Blue Midnight ,10 Ohm as I measured it @ 0 Celsius .



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Im thinking the Green wire from the shorted magnum to base  gave power into the Classic ,This had me in resting always after 1o mins or so, plus the crimp on the telco was poor , yellow had no conductivity.Yellow & black wire Pin 2 & 5 were same potential from the picture,but bad crimp on pin 2 & a power potential . Glad it didn't LET THE  smoke out on a new Classic.
