Default Warning battery error

Came to charge my lipos for the first time in a while and one says warning battery error as soon as I press charge. Any ideas how to get it back up and running?

Sounds like its dropped below the minimum voltage, check you can't change that setting on your charger. there are a couple of things you can do, both are dodgy and Ive never done , so Im not going to advise you at the risk of being shot down on here

I have in the past charged them on a ahem, cough, nicad charge outside in a fireproof bag just in case for about a minute to a minute and a half at a time. Not advocating doi g this, just saying.

Or may be worth you trying this method if you feel competent enough.

Use the battery check function on your charger to see what voltage all the cells are at.
If they are all slightly to low a kick start as per lee1972 should work, if it's just one, try the same method. But you might have a failed cell. So be careful.
