sounds like you need a new battery pack

also make sure that the switch is off when charging.

Nah my charger plug is fiddly, check it, l pull it out plug it in 10 times before it connects right and charges, it started happening after the on/off switch got soaked in water on mine, so l suspect corrosion in the switch mechanism, fiddle the plug end where it goes into truck, that gets mine connected too.
How old is the battery, under 2 years should be ok.
