Is there a work around for batteries that are not charged enought to be charged, and show as "NULL"

What I have done in the past was to charge said batteries in another charger just to pump them up a little. Then I can use the LaCrosse charger to finish them up.

If the refresh mode does not do it the battery may be be young hope. You can always try flashing a battery. For that procedure, check out tube videos

You will have to use a "dumb" charger to charge them up a bit before your can use them with this charger. Hope this helps.

I place a battery with enough charge next to the dead cell in the neighboring slot then "jump" the positive terminals with a piece of foil just long enough to start the charge cycle.

The NULL message appears when batteries are old.Now and then that happens and the work around I use is:1.- insert the batteries in a "normal and cheap" charger for a couple of minutes;2.- pick the batteries and insert them in the La Crosse charger and use the REFRESH function (the NULL does not appear);3.- charging using REFRESH normally takes longer (2 days) but is worth as you shall have the batteries full charged and as good as new ones.

Yes. Put them in a dumb charger for a few minutes and they will begin to take a charge. You can then put them back into your smart charger and they will charge.This works for most but not all batteries that fail.

Make sure the battery is placed correctly. When I found the battery has not been charged is usually due to not placing it correctly into the charger

I would immediately send it back. It has to be defective. My two batteries work just fine. They take the charge and hold it until you are ready to use them. Sorry to hear you had trouble. These are hi-tech units and I do suppose that they are a little temperamental.

If charging circuit is non-operational, the old battery may be OK. try returning the battery and request replacement. if charging problem still exists, the charging circuit may be the culprit.

Usually it is the battery. Take a battery you know is still chargeable and see if it recharges.

I read that these batteries, if not used frequently used, tend to go dormant and the chargers will not charge. Need to connect battery to a regular battery charger to re-energize. Recommend you try to charge another battery or investigate the dormant battery issue for your specific equipment. Hope this helps.

Batteries may not be charging up? Contacts for charger may not be making contact, the "fit" on my unit is sloppy!

My battery won't charge and sometimes the speakervmode won't work. What do I do?!?

Are you sure the charger is working, I would check that first? If so, also suggest you might need to disassemble it to determine the battery model and type, then search online accordingly. Sorry - not a positive answer to your question.

TypIcally, batteries needba few hours to be fully charged. Be sure that all is properly connected, that the outlet provides power and try charging overnight. If that does not work, then i would suspect the batttery or less likey, the charging circuitry in the radio.good luck.

I would suggest contacting the seller. Sounds like it might be a bum battery.

Although I read about this sort of thing from some other reviewers, I did not have this problem. I added the charged batteries, turned it on, and it worked. I don't know if there's a remedy other than exchanging the product. Sorry.

You should have an auto loading system on your computer that loads the necessary information in your computer when you plug it into your computer. That is all I did and it worked fine. Check and see if your batteries are both functioning properly.

First try reattach in the lcd cable but if that doesn't work then when you buy a new lcd test it by plugging it in before install an and make the battery has a chargeSteven

It could be that the batteries you recieved were not connected correctly or they might be defective? Thats all i can think it can be. Or maybe your charger is going out? it could be multiple things really.

The battery might just be fully charged. That was the case with mine.Use the battery a bit then plug it back into the charger. Make sure the charger is plugged into the USB port.
