Charger remains on charged status. will not switch to charging (red light). Batteries don't charge, although charger shows output of 46 volts when metered.

If they both show charged, they are unlikely to be incorrect. You can test the contacts of the batteries with a test meter, and you can also test the charger output.
If they don't work in a tool, the tool may have failed. Having said that, they do appear to have some history of this. Check out the videos.
Do the batteries charge? Are they charged? The green indicator normally is the status signal that the battery is charged and the red indicates that the battery needs charging or is charging. If you plug in a charged battery, some chargers will flash red momentarily then go out. This is an indication that the charger checked the battery (red light) and if the charge is good, the red light will go out. I hope this helps you.
STATUS LIGHT will FLASH RED when charging. Allow at least 30 minutes for a full charge. STATUS LIGHT will turn ORANGE, and then turn off when charging is complete. STATUS LIGHT will FLASH GREEN when the batteries in the CHARGING BASE are LOW. Replace the batteries. STATUS LIGHT will FLASH RED & GREEN when there’s a CONNECTION ERROR. Reconnect the FAIRY.
I had the same issue, then i just found the manual, in charging part, it says:"The charging indicator will be lit as long as the appliance is connected to the plugged-in charger." Also it says:"While charging, the charger may get warm, this is perfectly normal and safe. It can remain on charge indefinitely without damage or danger. It is not possible to "overcharge" the battery cells with the charger provided"
Batteries don't always look degraded but if they've been in use for a while or have a bad cell, they will show up bad on the charger and it won't charge them. The only way to test the batteries is to try to charge them on another charger. If the batteries show defective on another charger, they are bad and you'll have to replace them. Also try to charge some batteries you know to be good on your charger to see if it's the problem. If your batteries charge on another charger, your current charger is bad and they don't have any replaceable parts in them so you'd be looking at replacing it.
John the red flashing light indicates a low battery When you charge the battery your charger should be showing a red light for power and a yellow light. When the batteries are fully charged you should show a red and green light on the charger. Now if you have a voltmeter plug the leads into the two outter holes of the charger port located under the front of the joystick.Without the charger plugged in you will be reading the battery voltage. Fully charged it should read 27-30 volts if you are only reading 20-24 volts then the batteries are low. If you have an onboard charger plug it in and you should read the charger voltage of 29-32 + volts If you aren't getting that voltage then you have a bad charger if you are getting the charger voltage then you have bad batteries and they need to be replaced Hope this helps you
The control systems on power mobility equipment have a "prevent" circuit that immobilizes the equipment while it is plugged into a charger, so folks won't take off with it plugged into the wall outlet. When you turn it on when plugged into a charger, the display will flash constantly, or sweep constantly, depending on the manufacturer. This is normal. Your off-board charger should have a red light to indicate power to the charger, and another light for the charge status. Yellowish means it is charging, when it turns green, you are fully charged. If the status light is green all the time, that is an indication that the charger is not functioning properly, or that the batteries are below a chargeable state. Check charger output, which should be 26-28 volts dc, and each battery should show at least a 12 volt reading, but around 13.5 volts with a full charge. If one or both of the batteries drops below 12 volts after a short period of time, it's time for a fresh pair. Fully charge new ones before using the chair.
