The Ryobi charger will flash green as it charges and then remain steady or slowly flashing green when fully charged. Flashing red means testing and if it remains steady or slowly flashing red it is defective.
SOURCE: both green and yellow light stay on and batteries
If both yellow and green LEDs come on, this indicates
a deeply discharged or defective battery pack.
Allow the battery pack to remain in the charger for 15
to 30 minutes. When the battery pack reaches normal
voltage range, the red LED should come on. If the
red LED does not come on after 30 minutes, this may
indicate a defective battery pack and should be
replaced.
n After normal usage, a minimum of 1 hour of charging time
is required to fully recharge battery pack.
SOURCE: Very little juice in freshly charged batteries
have you tried the batterys in any other tool?
you would also need to check the voltage of the batterys they should be at least 18 volts (19 prefered)
then if the batterys do not show charged you would need to make sure the battery charger is putting out voltage.
After that contact your closest Ryobi service center we would check that for free to let you know what you need, I am sure you local place would do the same.
SOURCE: yellow / green light will not go off when charging
Its likely the batteries will take at least several hours to fully charge, if not more. NiCad batteries are slow charging and usually need 4-6 hours for a full charge. Keep them on longer or even overnight but make sure you remove them in the morning. You will probably find the light turns green after 4-6 hours of charging. If lights stay yellow and green after 12 hours of charging, it may indicate a fault in the battery itself where it will not accept a charge.
SOURCE: I have a new Ryobi 18V Drill which came in a
Take it back to the store and tell them it is no good, and get a new pair of batteries, take the charger too. I had the same thing, brand new batteries, gone in weeks, they replaced them, no problem.
Testimonial: "Excellent advice. I immediately contacted Screwfix who sent a replacement part which arrived the next day and works perfectly."
SOURCE: when i place a 18v
In some model the FUSE got burn.But if this is not your case one or both,batts and charger are burn.Try first to change the batt, then if this not work, change the charger.

7/08/2016 I HAVE HAD THIS KIT SINCE, 7/12/2015, BUT I HAVE NOT HAD A CHANCE TO USE IT, DUE TO BAD HEALTH... I BOUGHT IT SO MY BROTHER WOULD HAVE THE TOOLS TO MAKE SOME REPAIRS FOR ME... BUT THEN HE GOT SICK AND COULD NOT MAKE IT UP TO OCALA,FL WHERE I LIVE... HE LIVES IN LEHIGH ACRES,FL.
SO, I INSTALLED THE BATTERIES IN THE FLASHLIGHT AND THE DRILL FOR STORAGE... I JUST CHECKED THE BATTERY CHARGE IN THE FLASHLIGHT AND IT WAS DOWN BY ONE LIGHT... SO I DECIDED TO TOP OFF BOTH BATTERIES RIGHT NOW... AFTER USING THE FLASH LIGHT FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES, IT WENT DEAD. I SWITCHED BATTERIES AND DRAINED THAT BATTERY. I TRIED CHARGING BOTH BATTERIES AND THEY WOULD ONLY CHARGE UP TO ONE LIGHT.
NO LUCK AT ALL, I THINK I HAVE A BAD CHARGER, BECAUSE BOTH BATTERIES WILL NOT CHARGE.
9-10-2016 I JUST WENT ONLINE TO HOME DEPOT, TO FIND OUT IF OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM.
TODAY, 9-11-2016, I CHECKED THE OUTPUT VOLTAGE FROM THE CHARGER WITH MY DIGITAL MULTI TESTER. AND IT WAS AROUND 5.5 VOLTS DC.
9-12-2016 10:00 AM I JUST RETURNED FROM HOME DEPOT. WITH THE HELP FROM A LADY NAMED KAY, WE FOUND OUT THAT MY CHARGER WAS PROBABLLY OKAY, BECAUSE WE TRIED IT WITH AN 18 VOLT LITHIUM BATTERY THAT THEY HAD THERE AND IT WAS CHARGING IT OK: BOTH RED ON AND GREEN FLASHING.. APPARENTLY, BOTH MY BATTERIES WERE BAD FROM DAY ONE. SHE WAS VERY PLEASANT TO WORK WITH. SHE REPLACED MY BATTERIES WITH TWO NEW ONES. I'M HOME NOW AND CHARGING THE FIRST ONE.
I GUESS THIS, 18-VOLT DUAL - CHEMISTRY CHARGER, compatible with any 18-Volt ONE+ battery (NiCd or lithium-ion) , WILL NOT OUTPUT 18 VOLTS DC, IF THE BATTERY IS BAD. BOTH BATTERIES TOOK ABOUT 20 MINUTES EACH TO GET TO FULL CHARGE. NOW I WILL LEAVE THE FLASHLIGHT ON FOR AWHILE AND SEE IF I CAN CHARGE THEM BACK UP AGAIN.
I RAN THE FLASH LIGHT FOR 30 MINUTES, WITH EACH BATTERY, AND THEY BOTH CHARGED UP OKAY. I AM HAPPY NOW...
I ALSO CHECKED RE-CHARGING BATTERIES ON U TUBE, AND FOUND THAT BATT'S WILL NOT CHARGE, IF THEY ARE UNDER 12 VOLTS.
