Gtech Docking Station or Stand Connection Fault

Vacuum will not charge when docked in a Gtech charging stand or wall dock, but charges directly from the charger.

Possible Causes

Loose or damaged contacts in dock, Faulty dock wiring, Misalignment between vacuum and dock contacts, Dock not receiving power from charger

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the charger from the mains before inspecting the dock.

Steps to try:

  • Bypass dock: Confirm that the battery charges correctly when connected directly to the charger.
  • Check dock power: Ensure the charger is fully inserted into the dock and the mains outlet is live.
  • Inspect contacts: Look for bent or dirty contacts on the dock and on the vacuum. Clean gently with a dry cloth.
  • Realign vacuum: Make sure the vacuum is seated correctly in the dock so that contacts meet.
  • Replace dock: If direct charging works but dock charging never does, replace the charging stand or wall dock.
