Possible Causes

Deeply discharged battery from long-term storage, Faulty charger not supplying correct voltage, Internal battery cell failure, BMS lockout due to low voltage

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Do not attempt to open the battery pack or bypass safety circuits.

  • Charge for extended time: Place the battery on the charger or dock and leave it for several hours, even if the indicator does not change immediately.
  • Check charger output: Ensure you are using the correct Samsung charger. If possible, test with another compatible charger.
  • Try a second battery: If another battery charges and works normally, the original battery is likely damaged from deep discharge and should be replaced.
  • If C14 remains after prolonged charging: The battery cells may be irreversibly damaged. Replace the battery pack with a new genuine Samsung unit.
