Make sure that the contact points of the robot are properly touching the contact points of the charging station. Make sure that the charging station is plugged in all the way and the cable on the bottom is also plugged in all the way. When charging, the distance between the robot and the charging station should be maintained at 1cm~2cm. The robot is likely to fail to charge if the distance is too close.
