Battery Not Recognised by the ChargerUpdated 2 hours ago

In some cases, the charger may fail to detect the battery.

Possible Causes

  • Dirty or damaged contacts
  • Faulty charger
  • Internal battery management fault
  • Battery damage

Resolution

  • Inspect battery terminals for contamination or damage.
  • Clean all contacts carefully.
  • Test using another compatible charger where possible.
  • Try charging another battery in the charger to identify where the fault lies.

If the charger still does not recognise the battery, replacement may be required.
