My Braun beard trimmer has not been charging for the last few days. It was very frustrating because I had to attend a function that day. So, I started researching on the internet for this problem. Luckily I found several methods that helped to fix it.
If you are also experiencing this problem, you should not be worried. Because today I am here to help you.
So, let’s get started!
How to your Braun Beard Trimmer Not Charging
These are possible solutions that you have to try first.
Using After Several Months
The most common problem is that if you have not used your Braun trimmer for several months, its battery might be drained. If its battery is completely drained, you have to charge it 100%. Otherwise, you will not be able to turn on or use it.
If your trimmer was not under use for several months, you should plug it into the charger for at least 3 hours without interfering with the charging. While it is completely charged, you can check it to ensure that it is charged.
Power Socket Problem
The second problem can be with your power socket, which is why your Braun beard trimmer is not charging. So, you should check to ensure that the power socket provides electricity.
If you want to check the socket, you can use another device and plug it into the socket. And explore if the new device is charging; if it is not charging, the power socket is defective, which you should fix.
You can also use another compatible power socket near you. Ensure that a new socket you are using provides a roundabout 12V current, and avoid using a high voltage power source; it can damage the trimmer’s battery.
Charger Problem
You should also check the charger that you are using to charge your Braun trimmer. Ensure it is original and compatible with the trimmer. If you are using another local or another trimmer charger, you have to change it. And buy an original 12V charger to charge your Braun trimer.
Sometimes the power cable can not be plugged in correctly, so you should ensure it is completely plugged into the power socket and the trimmer. You should push it into the charging port if it is not inserted completely.
But don’t try to push it when the cable is still in the charging port/ power socket. It can damage your charging pin or charging port on the trimmer.
Charging Cradle Issue
Your Braun trimmer can not charge if it is not correctly positioned into the charging cradle. If you want to charge it, you should pick it up and properly position it on the base of the cradle. May the cradle is not correctly plugged into the power socket.
If you don’t know how to position it on the charging cradle, you should check it on the owner manual that came with the trimmer. In this manual, you will find the whole technique to properly plug your trimmer into a charging cradle.
Overheated
If you are charging your Braun trimmer at a place where the temperature is too high or low. Because sometimes the trimmer can not charge in hot or cool temperatures. So, you have to check if the temperature is above 50℃; your trimmer can not charge.
If you have such a condition, you should go to a suitable place and then charge your trimmer. And if the trimmer is overheated, you should not plug it into the charger. Keep it in a clear ventilation area and use it after the temperature falls down.
Replace Battery
If the trimmer is not showing signs of charging and is not turning on, its battery might be dead. So, you should replace its battery and buy a new battery for your trimmer. If you don’t know how to replace its battery you can go to the electrical repair shop.
Or you can read the owner’s manual, where you can find the complete guide to changing its battery.
Clean Trimmer
If the trimmer is still not working after completely charging, the issue can be due to dirt or hair particles. And that’s why your trimmer can be charged, but it can not work normally. And the trimmer can get jammed because of the dirt particles. You will keep thinking about the charging issue, but the original problem can be due to dirt.
To fix it, you should clean it and ensure to clean it after every single use. If your trimmer is waterproof, you can use water to clean it, but don’t use detergent or soap. This can remove the greasy parts that protect the blades and have other consequences.
If the trimmer is not washable, you should use a cotton swab and a clean brush to clean it. And ensure no dirt particles remain.
Contact Manufacturer
After going through the above methods, if your Braun beard trimmer is still not charging, it can have a hardware issue. May its power button not working or disconnected from the main circuit.
You must contact the manufacturer to fix the hardware or the electric issues. They can help you to fix the problem. You can replace it if the trimmer is under warranty; the whole process you can get at the owner’s manual.
You can also go to the nearest electric repair shop, where you can get your beard trimmer fixed. If there is no possible way to fix the trimmer, you should consider buying a new and high-quality beard trimmer.
How do I know if my Braun trimmer is fully charged?
When your Braun trimmer is charging, a green LED light will illuminate the trimmer; that indicates that the trimmer is successfully charging.
While it is ultimately charged, this green light turns solid, and you should remove it from the charger. Perhaps overcharging causes damage to its battery and decreases its life.
