My digital camera worked fine yesterday. I tried to charge it as normal using the charger, but instead of a continuous red light indicating charging I see a flashing red light. Normally the camera takes around 2 hours to charge, but after this time the red light was still flashing and the camera will not switch on, presumably as it has not charged. Could this be the battery? or perhaps the charger?
I found this while searching to find an answer to solve my problem. It worked! Some say that it took them about 20 times... it took me about 7. Be patient and just keep trying! Hope this helps!
My NP 20 gave me the flashing red light of death and I got Casio to replace it. Then I had the same problem with my second NP 20 so I dug around for a way to fix it and I found the following advice on a site called FixYa. It worked instantly and I didn't risk ruining my battery.

I had the same problem as this.
what i did was...
i kept putting the battery on the charger then took it off as soon as the red light came on.
i did this about 6 times.
doing this puts a bit of charge in the battery each time before the charger starts to flash.
after the battery as got enough charge in it it can start to charge.
hope this helps.
I had this problem as well. I found on another web a simple solution. Get a square 9 volt battery. Connect the battery to your casio lithium battery. The easy way to do this was using two sewing neddles. This is really better done with two people. Get the first person to hold the needles on each terminal. Then the other person lowers the lithium battery onto the needles. Please make sure you connect positive to positive and negative to negative. Hold this for about 30 seconds. This will be enough charge for the battery to hold and then the charger will work. This is a tested solution
Yep. Same hear. Casio will replace with reciept - call 1300 728 606. Pitty I've lost mine!
I tried putting the battery on the charger and then removing it as soon as the red led blinked on. I repeated it 35 times. No luck.
I then tried the square 9 volt battery method described by lancsamb above. I felt the 9 volt get hot so I disconnected it and tried the battery on the charger. Still got the red blinking led. I tried the 9 volt again and left it on about 20 seconds. It got warm again. I then placed the battery on the charger and voila, it is charging. Thanks for your help.
How to fix charging flash HP Photosmart R927
Same problem as above. Also called Casio, gave info on where purchased and serial #. Sending out battery.
I had the same problem and called Casio Technical Support at 800-435-7732. The person who answered was very nice and said they did have some issues with their lithium battery and would send me out a new battery free of charge.

Red light on charger flashes.
I have a similar problem. The charger shows correct but on completion the camera wont switch on. It is not the battery as I bought a new one (£33!)
What next
I just bought a new ex-z75, put the new battery to the charger and the red light kept flash forever. after the battery having been charged for two hours, insert the battery to the camera, the camera did not turn on.
what a shame.
I have the exact same problem...
same exact problem right now
Me too...too bad no one seems to know the answer :(
i used ma EX-Z75 camera like 2 times an now ive tried to charge it but only a red light flashes.ive charged once ova night an wen i put it bac in da camera it wouldnt turn on.HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!WAT SHOULD I DO????????????
I have the same problem as well. Instead of a constant red light, I get a flashing light and it goes on indefinitely (tried overnight several times). Camera will not operate at all!
I went to use my camera on saturday having not used it for a while and when I tried to switch it on nothing happened. I assumed that I needed to charge it and left it to charge overnight however when I came to take it off the charger I noticed that the charge light was still red and that it was flashing, and there was still no power getting to the camera. Does this mean that the battery is not charging, and if so why, and what can I do to solve this problem, I have this camera less than a year.
Battery does not charge, red flashing light, brand new camera. Very bad for Samsung!
as above whats the answe did u buy a new battery or a new charger?
Same thing, Had it stored for a few weeks, got a new battery and just get the red flashing light. Kodak is no help on this issue.
