    It’s helpful! Thank you so much! Mine was blinking all four, after connecting jumper between j1 terminals and pressing test button in same time it started getting charge. 😊

    Awesome, totally worked for me after getting the voltage with another battery as many videos show.

    Thank you very much! Had a dead one for a year. Still had solid voltage, wouldnt charge. Was able to reset and have it on the charger at the moment. Will follow up tomorrow with the results.

      Checked back on it today. Holding charge so far. Pretty sure one of the led's is dead from salt water. Operates in my impact drill. Time will tell. Thanks again!

    When resetting, I get the four green lights going off in sequence (running). Getting 16 volts at post. Remove lights remain and stiil have 16 volts. Push test button , light 1 flasshes then stops and volts go back to 0.05. Any ideas?

      I have this same result, lights run in sequence from position one to position four. I have once cell at 2.5v, one at 3v and the rrst at about 3.5v. I think it may just be toast. Somehow I had left my battery in the charger base while unplugged. Barely a year old but I am guessing thats the cause and its dead now. No other videos showing how to trick the charger into charging it result in anything either.

      I am also having the same exact result. Did you find any way to fix it for this scenario? It's like it resets it, but then as soon as the press the button again it puts it back into an error state.

    Hi, wanted to know if you jumped the two small holes to reset bms. It was hard for me to tell on the video? Thanks for any info.

    • @craighowland5130
      @craighowland5130  10 місяців тому

      Yes… you have to jump the two small holes at j1… while holding the battery test button… you should see lights 2 and 4 flash and the it should reset

    • @craighowland5130
      @craighowland5130  Рік тому +1

      I would make sure your voltage is up to atleast 18v first

    Grab a qtip and dip a bit of alcohol on it or alcohol wipe and clean up your board. You'll get more life out of it, if the circuits are blocked at all it won't work right or at all too.

      You might have to boost your battery with another battery first

    Only stupid people record videos in Portrait.
    Smart people video in Landscape which means you turn the phone camera horizontally NOT VIRTUALLY...

      Funny you are calling people stupid, do you mean vertical dummy??? Virtual is a good adjective for your common sense, really hard to hold a phone sideways and record while using your free hand to point, what did you not understand from the verbal explanation and you clearly can see the J terminals he spoke of, why don't you tell the guy thank you for saving you money instead of bitching about it.

    Thanks 2:27 those J1 holes are tiny. are you actually going into the hole or just touching them? My battery does not even return any voltage. I tried to jump start it with 18v but did nothing.
