My Motorola CLS1110 Two way radio has issues charging. I have a 6 station charging station and when I put the walkie on the dock to charge the light just contiues to blink red. I have to continually readjust the walkie for the light to turn solid red if it will at all. Please help

You may have a bad battery, or even dirty battery contacts. A few troubleshooting ideas include: 1) Swap the battery to another known good CLS1110 radio and see if the other radio has the same problem when placed on the charger. If so, you have a bad battery. This type of battery typically lasts approx. 18-24 months before needing replaced. 2) If swapping the battery proves to be successful, check the battery contacts on the affected radio for debris, scum or dirt. Clean the contacts on the charger and the radio with a pencil eraser if needed. (The fact you have to readjust the walkie in the charger indicates you might have problems with the contacts.) 3) Try the battery from the known good radio in the affected radio, if the battery charges correctly, you know the radio is fine. If the charger blinks with the known good battery, then you know you have a radio problem.
