As I said in the comment some chargers have 2 lights and will both turn green after over night charge. if not then 1st make sure your outlet is not being accidentally shut off by a light switch.
A red light indicates the charger is charging the battery, an amber light means it has switched from fast rate charging to trickle to keep the battery topped off, and green would mean the battery is completely charged. But don't be fooled waiting for green, many times the charger will only be on green for a moment before changing to amber and keeping the battery topped off.
Flashing can be a sign of a problem on some chargers.
A rapid flashing red can on some chargers indicate a bad or shorted battery, or a bad battery contact in the charger itself. If in question, try a different battery on the charger or compare with another charger to determine if the blinking is normal.
If a battery is defective, it will not accept a charge and it is not the fault of the charger. When connected and switched on, with the clamps making solid contact, the amp meter should give you a reading, depending on the state of the battery. To do a quick test on the charger, try it across a headlamp bulb, The bulb should light and the amp meter should read about 5 amps.
When the green light stays on regardless of dead battery, this means the battery is defective. The battery must present a load to the charger, which causes the charger voltage to drop, turning the charger on. When the battery is defective, it will not load the charger, and the charger voltage stays at full charge value. This of course, causes the green light to be switched on.
