If its not an bad soldering or an passive component , beware almost all brands wenn ordering an electric part for a charger its almost always more expensive then a complete (new charger ) the latest years there are more and more remplacement options to the customer , if there are defect components that are not made for ordering on marketing technical reasons and safety and more reasons. mosnfets (passive component almost sometimes fuse resistors but smd components to repair is not meaningfull . when termical defects are hidden.

SOURCE: Fuji Fine Pix Z5 battery won't charge

I looked up this question with the same problem and while the battery was placed in with the right side in, the three metal tabs weren't on the right side with the three metal chargers- so I had to spin it around the other way...i hope i'm explaining this right...now it's charging! I am so glad. This camera is excellent.

SOURCE: Battery Dont Charge

jpierre's solution (in another thread) was right on the money. Touch the positive (+)end of the 9v battery to the positive (+) end of the camera battery.Leave them touching for a few seconds (10 seconds should be more thansufficient). Seems these lithium-ion batteries are subject to a'digital memory.' Subjecting it to a volt surge almost three timeshigher seems to clear it.

In short, it works like a charm.

SOURCE: I have 28v milwaukee tool kit and the batteries,

you can try and unplug the charger for a couple minutes and then retry. I have a LiIon at work and sometimes it does it also, if not then the batterys would probably be bad, I would contact Milwaukeetool.com and see about warranty replacement for these. They have a good warranty on the newer products.

I have batteries and charger uc 18yrl will they fit most Hitachi drills that are a few year's old??

probably not
older chargers were made for ni-cad batteries and now they are li- ion batteries which require a different charger
to distinguish the difference , most manufacturers changed the battery pack design
talk with a battery retailer or a good tool shop or appliance repair shop

Problem with hitachi chargers

I live by hitachi, one of the good things about it is lowes will exchange them as long as you have a receipt and it's under 30 days. If not chargers are not very expensive, or you can send it back for repairs. I have 10 of those combo packs and never had a problem with a single one, for you to get 2 is a freak accident.

Hitachi cordless drill charger not working

The various rates of flashing are error indicator codes and should be explained on the charger case. They are for the condition of the battery's though and not the charger. It sounds like the charger itself is bad. Can you return it for a replacement? Is it still in Warranty? For whats its worth, I went from Milwaukee tools to Bosch to De Walt before being satisfied with performance. I hope this helps.

My Hitachi UC 18YG charger has flashing (not steady) red light when batteries inserted. Both batteries (12 volt EB1215S) no longer charge up to full charge. Is problem with batteries or charger? If...

I've followed HELP2DIY's advice

4 #3 phillips screws will open the case

there are actually 2 fuses 15A glass type which i can see that both wires through the visible glass are intact

the rest of the resistors and capacitators & what-not on the circuit board/ breadboard also show no signs of any electrical burns

i've also have 2 replacement batteries just to test this charger & still blinking

any others found a way to fix this "made in china" product?

i also went to AzOn for similar reviews with no real answer but to just buy another one

Drill battery charger doesn't work

Hi Firemedic13; Most chargers like yours have a fuse inside them. Remove the screws that hold the charger together. The fuse will be on the low voltage side of the transformer. Un-solder and replace it with one of the same value. If the charger is not held together with screws (doubtfull) you will have to carefully cut along the seam where they were glued together. A dremmel tool works good for this. After repairing use some ABS pipe glue to re-seal them together. If the fuse is not blown then the unit will require testing by someone that is proficient with a multimeter. Most times it is the transformer that has fried a wire. If the sides of the transformer have any burnt spots on it then it will be the culprit. Hope this has helped. Best regards; HELP2DIY Please dont forget to rate my answer.
