Cause
Different manufacturer's battery
pack, or there is an object in the
charger pocket.
Dirt or foreign objects are in the
charger pocket.
1) Battery pack is not making
contact with terminals in the
charger pocket.
2) Faulty battery pack.
3) New battery pack, same
result.
There is nothing wrong with the
battery pack or charger. During
the first few minutes, the
charger checks the battery pack
for correct voltage and charge
state. During this time the
YELLOW LED is continuously
ON. After charging is complete,
the GREEN LED comes ON.
Current could not be sourced
through the battery pack due to
age, exhaustion or damage to
the cell(s). The battery pack
does not communicate with the
charger.
OR
The battery pack voltage has not
reached 8.2VDC within 90
minutes and the charger has
timed out.
OR
The charger's 4-hour or 6-hour
timeout period has expired.
Solution
Check if the battery pack is LXE part
number MX5A379BATT. If not, do not
use. Remove the object from the charger
pocket.
Unplug charger from outlet. Remove any
dirt or foreign objects from charger
pocket. If the LEDs continue to remain
ON, the charger may be defective. Return
charger to an authorized LXE service
center.
1) Push battery pack in firmly. Do not
"slam" the battery pack into the
battery pocket.
2) Replace battery pack.
3) Contact LXE for replacement
options.
Do not "top off" a fully charged battery
pack by repeatedly placing it in charger.
The battery pack may overheat and be
damaged!
Contact LXE for battery pack
