AirPods 3 case not charging

When I plug in the case, the Amber light comes on for several seconds and then goes off. No green light comes on. The battery wisher says the case is at 90 percent.

B. Try the Following Tasks:

  • Hold Down the Button on the case for about 15 seconds.


  • Use an Apple Brand Cable - not a third party one - cool though it may look, a fabric, third-part cable would likely tear - (Apple cable's are plastic and are intended for Apple)


  • Remove the AirPod from the Case, then place it back in the charger. Perhaps it need to resync with he charger.
