Probably a dead cell.

Can you show all labels on the cell?

It should try to turn on for a few seconds.

Try the procedure again to see if there is any difference.

Watch the numbers to see if they change at all.

It might just be a completely dead cell.

Without a good cell, it can be hard to verify the board is working.

I would replace the cell and then see what happens.

You can load test the box with a 24 volt 150 watt light if you feel comfortable doing that.

You can use (2) 12 volt 75 watt lights in-series to load test the box using the cord from the cell.

There are 2 black and 2 white wires in the cord; if you connect both white to one side of a light and both black to the other side, that should provide a test load at 24 volts and 150 watts = 6.25 amps.

Cut both white and both black wires and use the wires from the plug side.

Note: Do not do this if you have any doubt at all.

Only do what you feel 100% sure you know how to do safely.

Do at your own risk.
