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.
