The most likely problem is that the transformer that plugs into the wall is burned out. To check, use a multimeter to measure the resistance between the pins which plug in. The transformer must NOT be plugged in. The resistance should be around 500 ohms. If the transformer is burned out, the resistance will be infinite. If that is OK, plug the transformer into the wall and measure the output voltage at the connector which plugs into the vacuum (while it is unplugged). If the wires from the transformer to the connector are in good condition it should measure somewhere around 4.8 volts AC. (It would measure less when it is actually charging.) If that all checks good, the problem is in the vacuum and, most likely, one or more of the three batteries inside will not take a charge. The batteries can be replaced by three sub-C NiCd batteries by a competent person.

What do you do if your charger do not go in the hole?

If your charger does not fit into the port, check if there is anything obstructing the port like lint or debris. You can try using a can of compressed air to clean out the port. If the charger still doesn't fit, it may be a compatibility issue, and you may need to get a different charger that fits.


Does it do any harm to connect a battery charger the wrong way around?

Yes, connecting a battery charger the wrong way around can cause damage to the battery, possibly leading to overheating, leaking, or even explosion. It can also damage the charger itself and the connected device or vehicle. It's important to always double-check the polarity before connecting a battery charger.


Can you charge a 19.2 volt craftsman battery pack without the charger?

It is not recommended to charge a 19.2-volt Craftsman battery pack without using the appropriate charger. Using the wrong charging method can damage the battery pack and pose a safety risk. It is best to use the correct charger provided by the manufacturer to ensure safe and efficient charging.


Can a 12 volt charger charge a 36 volt golf cart?

Yes, you can make a 36 volt charger into a 24 volt charger, but it is not as simple as reducing the voltage with a resistor or a regulator.Chargers are designed for the specific requirements of the battery. This includes not only voltage, but current and (sometimes) the slope of the voltage over time. (NiCads are a very specific example of the latter.) Additionaly, you need to consider the power dissipation of the device that drops the voltage from 36V to 24V - As an example, if the charger is putting out 5A, you are talking about a dissipation, just for the step down of 12V, of 60W, and that might be a significant amount of heat that would have to be dissipated safely without setting anything on fire.Better to buy a charger specifically designed for the battery.


What is the voltage of a battery of three cells if one is connected the wrong way round?

The voltage of a battery with three cells connected in series is the sum of the individual cell voltages. If one cell is connected the wrong way round, the total voltage will be reduced by the voltage of that cell.

Mobile phone does not charge why?

First thing I would do is try and find another charger for that phone and see if it solves the problem, if it doesnt then you a have something wrong with your battery or have something wrong with your charging ports, either one can be looked at and determined at a service center; most carriers have service centers near by.
