Why is my Midland ER310 not charging?

If your Midland ER310 is not charging, it might be due to a damaged charging cable or port, or an issue with the internal battery itself. Ensure that the charging cable is properly connected and not frayed or broken. If the radio is supposed to charge via manual cranking, make sure you have cranked it for the recommended duration as insufficient cranking may not generate enough power. For example, if you're cranking for just a few seconds, it may not be enough to charge the battery adequately for use. Pro Tip: Always check for visible damage on the charging port and cable, and replace them if necessary. Consideration: If the internal battery has degraded significantly, it may not hold a charge and would need replacing.
