V6 Red light blinks 32 times

When I put my Dyson away last time into the charger, it worked great. Today when I took it out of the charger, it did not start up and the red light just blinked 32 times. Not sure why I didn't get any kind of warning of any kind that the battery was going bad. The unit is just a little over a year old!

32 blinks it's a lock status that cannot be reversed by placing the battery in the charger. It's triggered by the unbalance voltage between the cells. The battery design does not implement balancing so they are sort of destined to fail by the 32 red light blinks. If the cells are still good, there is a method to reset the lock status. One needs to open the pack, balance the cells and then re-start the pack.

Your Dyson may not have been connected to the charger correctly when last put away.

My V7 Dyson won't charge - blinks red a few times then stops. Only 3 months old.

-------------------

Red = flashing 1 to 10 times means needs a new body

Red -= flashing 11 or more times means needs a new battery

My dyson v6 wont charge. I put it on to charge but the light does not come on.

Usually the Charger when no lights appear. If it’s the battery you do get a blue red or amber light.

I have a Dyson vacuum cleaner cordless and is not charging the red light is blinking but there's no green light we have had it for about a year and a use it every day usually twice a day

An issue with the battery may lead to the charger not detecting, nor attempting to charge the battery. I've solved this in the past by leaving things on charge for an extended period of time (sometimes days at a time, but with frequent checks that it's not getting too hot), but your mileage may vary.

Worst case scenario, you may need a new battery or a new charger. You can buy cheap replacement chargers from China for under 10 dollars, but a battery may set you back more. I suggest buying a genuine Dyson battery if you can; a charger isn't as important to remain genuine.

Definitely look into whether you're still covered by warranty, as I know Dyson offer some pretty hefty after sales support these days (some 5+ years). If you are, give them a call and see if they can help.
