    I have a different model Schumacher charger with the same problem. 
Last year it just stopped working.  I thought the same thing you are 
thinking, but when I disassembled it, I found no such easy fixes.  No 
blown fuses.  I did find a loose connection, but that wasn't the problem.

    I never did fix it, and bought a replacement ( since my original lasted 
many years ) instead.  Haven't quite brought myself to throw out or 
recycle the broken yet, since it doesn't look like 'junk' yet ;)

    Good luck.
