HI, Its ok for the charger to have those lights on. If you have been using for quite some time or the batteries have had several charges then the charger will operate a service on the batteries to keep them in good condition. We have had a few take as long as an hour to service , then it goes into normal charge mode. Just leave it on to do its service and it should be fine. If there was a problem then the red and green lights would alternate flash and a siren beep would sound. Hope this was of help to you.

You need to recycle it in the charger. do you have a button on the charger to do that with? If not try switching chargers.

Hi both red and green lights are flashing and it wont charge battery bl1830 lith ion

If both lights are flashing it means the battery is defective so it won't charge it. By defective it could mean the battery is just worn out or there may be a short in the battery. If the battery is under warranty you can get it replaced at a Makita Service Center, if not you have to buy a new battery.

I need to find a manual for the makita 18v lxt angle grinder. my problem being that when i put the battery on the lights flash up red and during use the lights do not work at all. please help.

Hi, Don't stress, its working fine. The grinder has a sort of self test when you put the battery in, it blinks. What you don't want is the light to come on when you are using it. That means that you are bogging it down and if on for 30 seconds ( if I remember right) it will shut the grinder off until you reset it by turning it off and then on again. So no worries!

Makita cordless driver drill model-6347d. ni-mh rechargeable nickel metal hydride battery 1834 18v 2.6ah will not stay charged. battery charter dc 1804- works great.

You say will not stay charged? Over what time period? Are you aware Nicad and NiMh rechargeables discharge naturally at 1% per day so where does that leave your power tool after 3 months? Furthermore they only have around 1000 charges in their useful life so you can immediately see how these tools are not for intermittent(ie handyman) use.
