18 volt ryobi battery charger...green & yellow lights come on what does that mean????

  • Anonymous Mar 29, 2009

    I have 2 batteries and one charges, so I'll rule out the bad charger. I'll try cleaning the contacts (unplugging first) and see if it goes red. If not, it'll go back to be responsibly disposed of.

Talked to Ryobi and they are vague. It can either mean that the battery is bad, or the charger is bad and another one that maybe the contacts of the battery are dirty or not seating fully in charger. What I would look for in this instance first unplug the charger and look into charging slot to make sure the terminals of the charger are not bent and they come out into the cavity where battery would go. If not gently pull terminal into opening and retry. Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance

This happens on some of my batteries. On at least two of mine I got busy and left then in the charger (forgot them) and the light switched to red and the battery charged. So far I don't have a good solution to what is going on. That is why I was looking at the inet.

My ryobi 14.4 v cordless, when i put the battery in the charger the yellow and green light both stay on and does not charge. this happens with both chargers and battery packs

If i have this striaght two chargers and the green and yellow lights are on and the batterys will not charge and there 14.4v batterys correct . Then the batterys must be no good unless bolth chargers are bad and have the same problem witch is exterimly unlikely. most likely the batterys and are NG.They don't do well if left in cold condutions or hot for that matter but cold is worse . 14.4 V is is an unasul size and if its not a lithuim ion battery its going to be obisilete and unavaible soon if not already . Ihad the same problem with my RYOBI 7.2 volt can't get the batterys for under a 100 dollars thats one and a speical order i paid 39 dollars for the gun and 2 batterys . They make the money off resale on batterys . And you can do far better then RYOBI for a screw gun now a days

When battery is docked on charger both yellow & green lights go on. Battery does not charge

that generally indicates a bad battery, but I would try another battery to make sure not a faulty circuit in the charger giving you a bad reading.

How do you test a charger for my 18 volt ryobi 4 pac (it has a circular saw, sawzall, flashlight and drill) all of a sudden it would not charge batteriesaanymore and before i buy a new charger i want...

When you insert a battery for charging, which light(s) combination do you see?. There should be red,green and yellow and different individual lights or combinations of lights mean different things. If only the red light goes on, chances are the batteries are to cold to charge. They will not charge below 32F so if your charger is in the garage, take the batteries in the house until they are room temp then try again. If you still have a problem and the unit or batteries are are less than 2 yrs old they should be be under warranty.

Green & Yellow light on 14.4V charger

It sounds like your battery is bad.

If both yellow and green LEDs come on, this indicates
a deeply discharged or defective battery pack.
Allow the battery pack to remain in the charger for 15
to 30 minutes. When the battery pack reaches normal
voltage range, the red LED should come on. If the
red LED does not come on after 30 minutes, this may
indicate a defective battery pack and should be
replaced.
n After normal usage, a minimum of 1 hour of charging time
is required to fully recharge battery pack.

The Yellow and Green light both come on and stay on when I put in a battery to charge !!! This is a Ryobi 18v battery charger model #1423701.....

http://oneworld1.inetu.net/manuals/ryobi/hp1442m_1802m_874_eng.pdf
It sounds like your battery is bad. If yellow and green are on for more than 15 minutes it probably a defective battery pack. See page 8 in the manual.

Yellow & Green lights stay on,battery will not charge

I hooked a 12 volt car battery charger to the battery for about two min. Then I put it in it's own charger,the yellow & green lights came on for about 5 sec. then the red light came on . About 30 min. later the green light came on and the battery is fine.

Charger not charging

Just was on a website for Ryobi drills and it states that if the yellow and green light stay on for more than 15 minutes the battery is fried. Couldn't find the link but if you do a search for Ryobi Drill 18 volt you should find the same info. It was as product review from Australia I think.

I also have a problem with the charging of Ryobi batterys. They seem to charge AOK with the green light coming on but the charge does not last at all. Not sure if the problem is with the batteries on the charger.
