I had the same problem, took a bit to figure out. There is a 1/2 inch long, thin rubber strip near the top of the flashlight. It fits into two small holes - one has a place for the charger pin, the other has nothing in it. Just lift both ends of this strip, you'll see the receptacle in one of them.

look to where the push button switch is. rotate the flashlight 180 degrees. peel back the rubber strip that's about 3/4 inch wide. plug the charger into the hole provided on the left hand side of the strip. enjoy!

Amazon has them, Maglite will sell you one, they will even fix yours..., Depending on what year your flashlight is, you may need an adapter. Send MagLite an email...

1. Test the "new" batteries individually to make sure they are OK.2. Confirm that each battery is installed correctly into the holder - the flat (-) end of each battery should be towards the spring in the holder.3. Confirm that the battery holder is installed correctly into the flashlight - the holder goes in "bump" end first. If your flashlight still isn't working, then either the on/off switch or the LEDs have failed, and these are not user-replaceable.

Unscrew the end of the flashlight, install battery and screw end back on...

Hi! Put it in the charger and when it is full the try it again. If it still was going on and of you better return the item.

I've had this problem with mine. Try unplugging the charger and plugging it back in.

I would first take it apart and check the circuit to see if the problem is due to a false connection or other, as it is often with these products. Other than that, go to Kaidomain.com and order the: 9 LED series 5 mode low voltage protection circuit for $20.38 SKU# S020909.You will have a much brighter flashlight with this driver, good luck, hope this helps.

Try charging again. Make sure you have charger hooked up right. Sometimes charger is bad.

Are you sure the plug is all the way inserted. Could be the charger is defective. Bring it into Radio Shack and have it tested.

There is a small round, rubber piece on top of the flashlight. Pull that up and you should see the connection port.

Try holding down the button on bottom left for a second or two. It should light up and show how much of a charge it has. Push it again and the flashlight will come on. Again and it turns off. But if memory serves me, you should just be able to plug your connection in without "turning it on". Now I found after a short while that my charging connector became loose and if I didn't place it just so, it wouldn't charge up. I've had mine for some months and it still works great when charging from the wall. Never figured out how to do it with the solar part. Hope this helps.

You may have to make sure the plug in is working, be sure both lights are on, on the charger. If they are not you may need to take the ear piece out & try putting it back in. If that does not work, let me know & I will send you my box.

I'm having the exact same problem. Although my charger was somewhat inconsistent before it died completely. (For about a month the light would come on on the charger about 3/4 of the time when I plugged it in.)

Make sure your DC plug is fully inserted. When I got mine the same thing happened an I finally exerted a little more "push" on the plug and it engaged and charged.

when I connect the charger plug to charge not turn any light. You must turn on a light?

exactly the same happened to me, I have no answer , I use the flashlight no screwed up to the end, and besides the light isnt so strong according the price of the item, It wasnt a good business to me, sometimes we win and sometimes we lose, this buy is one of the last, have a good day.

Try a different cable, or a different charger, maybe discharge it completely and recharge.
