Midland GXT 550 Problem

[mas956]

I just put fresh AVP7 batteries into a pair of GXT 550s and put them on the charger for 24 hours. One radio works fine at power up but the other just vibrates and will not power on. Both batteries work fine in the working unit and the bad unit will not power on with either battery.

Is there anything I can try to fix the vibrating unit?

Thanks!

Try switching batteries from the known working unit into the other radio. If it powers on, the battery pack is defective.

Both batteries work in the good unit, neither works in the other.
