  If your LG Tablet is not charging, there could be several reasons: * The battery may simply need to be charged. * The surrounding temperature might be too hot or too cold; ensure you are charging at a normal temperature. * There could be a contact problem, so check the charger and its connection to the device. * The charger may not be receiving voltage; try plugging it into a different socket. * The charger itself might be defective, consider replacing it. * You might be using the wrong charger; always use original LG accessories.
