More than likely you battery isn't connecting with the charger, try gently prizing up the connector on the battery half a millimeter

Try prying up the center pin on the charger a touch..

[debb72]

its charging all the others fine its just this 0ne riva thats not working ???

[maccafan]

Just try prying up the center pin of the charger a touch and try it..It's possible that the pin on this one RIVA is slightly deeper than the rest.

It will not stop the charger working with the others..

Don't over tighten batteries on chargers or cartos or any attachment. Can cause all sorts of problems..

Just finger tight will do..

Same thing happened to one of mine a few days ago. Was only a few months old, it flashes some times but doesn't charge.

That is different..Center pin is shorting..You could've sent it to me along with the twist..
