Try the following checks to see if the problem is in the charger, the charger cable or the speaker.

If the speaker charging light comes on then the ''charger is faulty'' and needs to be replaced. You can charge the speaker by being connected to a PC/laptop, however it will take longer to fully charge as there is less current being supplied by the PC/laptop than the charger. You can also use any charger '''provided it has '''an '''output''' (printed on the charger) of '''5VDC''' (''definitely not more or less'') and a current output of '''0.5-1.0A''' (500mA-1000mA) and that it has a micro USB connector.
