my Apple Watch won’t charge on the charger. I’ve tried to force it to completely turn off like it said and it won’t do that. The red lightening bolt just appears and then goes away. Not sure what the issue is
Apple Watch Series 3
Hello!
I have seen the similar problem with my Series 1 Apple Watch I used. This is most likely due to the internal lithium ion battery being so degraded that the device cannot turn on.
What to do
If the battery is the problem with the device, the cost to service it with Apple is 79$ USD without tax.
Hope that helps,
Adin
