What to do if Stihl Saw battery does not charge but the LEDs on the charger are green?
If your Stihl Saw battery isn't charging even when the charger LEDs are green, the battery might be too hot or too cold. Allow the battery to cool down or warm up gradually to between 15°C and 20°C (59°F - 68 °F).

Why is the LED on my Stihl Saw charger flashing red?
If the LED on your charger flashes red, it could be due to a few reasons. First, try removing and reinserting the battery to ensure there's proper electrical contact between the charger and the battery.

If the issue persists, the charger itself might be faulty and should be checked by a servicing dealer.

There may be no electrical contact between the trimmer and the battery, so remove the battery and clean the contacts in the battery compartment before refitting it. The trimmer or battery could be damp, so allow them to dry. If the cutting blades aren't running freely, spray both sides of the blades with STIHL resin solvent. In case of a malfunction, remove and reinsert the battery. If 3 LEDs continue to flash red, stop using the trimmer and seek assistance from your STIHL dealer.
