Hello, I have a 5th generation, about 13 months old, and the battery appeared to go on it. I purchased a replacement battery and installed it. the iPod worked fine fo a day. The battery drained and I plugged it in to re-charge, the icon displayed and I unhooked it 4 hours later. battery still showed dead, purchaes a wall charger. Plugged it in, showed it was re-charging (icon displayed), when the charger was done. The battery still hadn't re-charged. have no idea what's wrong...any help out there.
Probably, when you replaced the battery, you didn't properly inserted its contact to the board connector, so just open the ipod again and re-install it, make sure it's all the way down into connector

Appreciate your assistance, unfortunately, when I opened the iPod back up, the small part that connects the battery ribbon to the motherboard fell off, so i can't say for sure if it would have worked but come to think of it, that piece already seemed loose when I originally opened it up. Perhaps, that's why my stock battery stopped charging in the first place. Not sure if the iPod is fixable now. Thanks again.
