Power light is on, auto vs motorcycle indicator is lit up, however, no indicator light comes on. There 3 lights, !, orange charging, green fully charged. None of these 3 lights are coming on.
I've checked all fuses,both ctek and #7 Porsche fuse, both are fine and cig lighter powers my Garmin just fine. Called CTEK, The lady was knowledgeable and pleasant to deal with but she had no answers.
Have any of you using this charger experienced this. Frustrated.

Yes, we have seen it before; you have an incomplete circuit either due to a blown fuse in the CTEK system or a wire problem. As it sounds like you are using the cig lighter, have you checked the fuse in the cig lighter adapter? It is a little glass fuse. There is also a fuse inside the CTEK case itself. If you have a digital multimeter available, check the output at the CTEK unit's cable to see if it is "hot", and also check the cable going to the cig lighter for continuity; somewhere, you have a disconnect.
