Just hooked up my factory battery tender to my 16 c7. Used plug in trunk hooked it up correctly. Came back 1 hour later charger has green light on solid indicating battery charged but orange light blinking. Why is orange light blanking. Does anybody know ans.

I believe the blinking light means a bad connection.

I thought that to . Everything seems to be connected. Green light is solid in charged box. Orange light blinking. Is this normaL

So, the green light is solid in the top row (battery symbol, third light, top row) and the light under the car symbol (bottom row) is blinking orange or is it the top row first light above the (!) symbol

This is correct. Re-check the connections. The blinking amber light (top row, middle light. 1/2 battery) clearly signals a bad connection. Be sure the cigarette plug is pushed in firmly to the REAR CARGO hatch port on the passenger side.

Bad connection. Had same issue few days ago with factory battery protection unit. Trunk connector seemed to be in OK but must not have been making complete connection. I unplugged the connector and re inserted it with a bit firmer push to insure connection. No more blinking light.
