Battery/ Charging Troubleshooting
– If the charger indicator light goes to green within a few minutes after being plug
in and doesn’t charge the batteries the batteries may be over discharged and
may require additional service or replacement. Contact your provider for
assistance.
If the charger indicator light goes immediately to green when plugged in to
charge, the problem is likely a blown fuse, popped circuit breaker (push reset
button) or similar. Contact your provider for assistance. If the charger does not
come on at all when plugged in, check the charger fuse if applicable, then call
your provider.
