Check the contacts on the charger and battery are clean. They can be cleaned with IPA or meths.
Make sure the battery charger is slid fully onto the battery, it may take a little bit of pressure to do this because of the springiness of the contacts.

Yes you can, as long as the batteries are the same style and fit the older Ryobi tools. The Ah rating is a capacity rating. The higher the Ah, the longer the battery will last so the 1.7Ah will just last a bit longer than the 1.5Ah batteries, but yes you can use them on older 18v Ryobi tools. I do it all the time.
