Light On Hoverboard Charger Flashes Red and Green (Back and Forth)

Sometimes the light on a hoverboard charger flashes red then green, and repeats this cycle. When it does this there is a problem that requires repair.

Problem

• The light on the hoverboard charger blinks red then green, and cycles through this repeatedly.
• It does not matter if the hoverboard is plugged in for the charger to blink red and green.
• Charger and hoverboard are usually knockoffs, unbeknownst to their owner.

What Should It Look Like

A hoverboard charger that is functioning normally will not blink red, nor will it blink green. It will have a solid color green when plugged into the wall, and then will turn solid red when plugged into the hoverboard (unless battery is full, by which it will have a solid green light).

What Causes a Hoverboard Charger to Blink Red then Green?

A hoverboard charger blinks between red and green because it has suffered an internal circuit fault.

How to Fix

Although it is possible for a highly skilled technician to fix, there is no economical way to fix a broken hoverboard charger. It is cheaper to purchase a new one.

Solution

The solution to a hoverboard charger that has a red and green flashing light is to simply replace the charger by purchasing a new hoverboard charger.
