It was reported that when they pulled the recharger out and put it on the dock, prior to starting a charging session with the implant, the green lights started scrolling rapidly.Off the dock, they said it was dead. recharger is unresponsive on the dock. caller said patient hadn't charged the implant in two weeks so they were hoping to get the patient charged up as soon as possible.Caller said they called they'd looked online for troubleshooting and called the manufacturer company representative this morning however both resources told them to call patient services (ps).Ps had the caller check the status of the dock and the caller confirmed that the green light was solid when the cable was plugged in and that the light would not flicker if they moved the dock around.Patient services had the patient place the recharger on the dock and hold the power button down for ten seconds but that did not resolve.Caller took recharger off the dock and ps had the caller do a recharger reset, however the issue was not resolved through troubleshooting.Recharger maintenance considerations were reviewed with the caller and the caller said they hadn't realized they needed to always have the recharger on the dock an charging when not in use but said they would do so from now on.A request was sent to the repair department to replace the recharger.
