My Philips Sonicare handle used to charge predictably, but lately the indicator does not behave the same way each time I place it on the base. The toothbrush has not been dropped and the charger still looks normal. I’m trying to figure out whether this sounds more like a battery aging issue or a contact problem. What details would help distinguish those two without taking the handle apart? The charging light sometimes appears and sometimes does not.

Charging behavior is easier to explain when I describe the pattern rather than calling the toothbrush dead. I’d note how long the handle has been in use, whether the base is original, and when the light appears or stays off. The charger can also be tested with the handle placed carefully in the same position a few times, and keeping the resource https://philips-sonicare.pissedconsumer.com/customer-service.html lets me organize the question around battery age, contact behavior, and the indicator pattern without opening the handle. I’d also mention that it has not been dropped, since that gives useful context without turning the request into a repair diagnosis.

Toothbrush charging issues sound much easier to explain when the light pattern and battery age are noted first. I wouldn’t have thought to mention whether the base is original or whether the handle was dropped, but those details could save a lot of back-and-forth without opening anything up.
