SOURCE: makita dc1804f charger will not charge new i-mh 1834 18v battery

I think your tryiong to charge NIMH batteries oon a charger designed for Lithium Ion batteries. With all the new style batteries such as NICAD, NIMH and LI-ION, charging becomes difficult. Most chargers pre NIMH and LI-ion, were designed for NICAD's. The best advise, match your batteries with the correct charger

SOURCE: Can't get the keyless chuck off cordless Makita 6095D drill.

If this is a newer tool it is probably a Torx drive screw usually a T20. The screw is LH thread and after removing it you will need to put some screws back in tool to remove the chuck. First shift the gear selector to the low setting and the clutch to the drill only. Next get a bent handle allen wrench about the capacity of the chuck install the short end of wrench in chuck and tighten. Put the chuck on a block or wood or a workbench to support is and turn the wrench to about a 30 degree angle in the counterclockwise position. The chuck has standard threads so you want to hit the wrench with a hammer to loosen it. This might take a few tries but it will work. Good luck

SOURCE: MAKITA LI-ION 18V BATTERIES WILL NOT CHARGE

I have had 3 battiers of the new 18v LXT go out on me. And then I had one of my drills burn up that was one of the new 18v LXT. I am stuck with the grinder, skill saw, 2 impact drivers, sawzal, flash light, and a drill. I only have one battery left and 2 chargers. That is funny. I will never buy any more Makita tools in my life.

Why does my Makita 6011D cordless drill not work when my charged battery in installed? The battery does work on my Makita saw so I know it is not the battery.

Look inside where the Battery terminals connect.
THey are flat metal springs inside the drills Battery hole.
Make sure the are not compressed down causing them not to touch the battery terminals of the battery.

ALso check the Brushes on the drills motor they may need replacing...

Makita battery wont keep charge

Given the problems with Makita Li-ion batteries there are 2 likely reasons, you have a faulty charger or both batteries are faulty, the best option is to find another charger to try your batteries on and see if they charge, depending on the age of the drill you may be able to get the batteries or charger replaced by Makita, a lot of them have been replaced out of the warranty period because they are known to fail prematurely, take the faulty item back to the place of purchase with you invoice and put the pressure on for replacement

Does makita 14.4 3.0ah work with makita 14.4 2.6ah drill

If the battery fits in the tool normally, without forcing it, yes both batteries will work in your tool. The AH (Ampere Hours) rating on batteries is a measurement of how long the battery will last on a full charge. Higher AH ratings means the battery lasts longer on a charge but usually at the expense of a slightly larger and heavier battery.

How long should I leave my drill on the charger? It's a makita #6040d.

It shouldn't take much more than one hour to charge your battery. If it isn't taking a charge or the charge is weak, your battery may be worn out. Look for a local dealer of Makita parts or try www.ereplacementparts.com for a new battery.

MAKITA LXT BL1830 18V LITHIUM-ION 3.0AH BATTERY

If the charge count on the batteries is under 300, Makita will replace them. Makita has a known defect in this battery that causes the battery to shut down before it is dead. So as of now they are exchanging ones with low use.

If they are truly defective and makita won't replace, you have to open them, find the dead cell or blown fuse, and replace. Search youtube makita battery for a video on repairing this battery. But once the red and green lights on the charger flash, the the battery can't be charged on a Makita charger -- it's been locked. So use a third party charger.

I have a NiMH rechargeable battery for my Makita drill. It is a 9.6V 2.2Ah battery - they don't charge anymore. I don't know if it's the battery or the charger - how do I find out.

This happens regular with Makita battery powered tools Try putting the battery in the frezer overnight this remedy worked for me once with a Hitachi battery if not you would be cheeper buying a new drill rather than a new battery.

I have a li-ion Makita BL1830 18V 3.0Ah battery that can't be charged...when on the charger the bottom two lights flash red..it will charge my other battery, so it doesn't seem to be the charger

Sorry Mate your battery is dead...
The makita lithium batterys dont like getting worked hard quickly.
There is a chip in them that recognice each battery to each specific charger. Try another charger. This has not worked for me. Try anyway
