My Ryobi 40v trimmer is no longer working as long as it used to. It starts dying with 2 and sometimes 3 of the 4 lights still lit. It charges fine, no red lights on the charger. When it's done, the charger light is solid green and all 4 lights on the battery indicate. Is there any maintenance or reset I can do?
Battery is weak. Those lights are really useless...more a marketing gimmick. It almost sounds like it developed a memory...this happens when certain types of batteries are not fully discharged before being placed on the charger. Replace the battery and make sure to follow charging directions for that particular type of battery
Testimonial: "I did follow the charging recommendations: took it off the charger after full charge, etc. It is 3 years + 2 months old and the Ryobi warranty is 3 years. :( I'm taking it to an authorized Ryobi support center and he says he will see what he can do but he is 3 weeks backed up on them."
