Summary of suits and radios: I have changed the battery from suit #8 to make the suit works. For the other suits, I had a problem with several chargers that didn’t make any light, either green nor red, when plugged. However, by switching the plugs for some of them, the chargers light works again. As I see a green light on the chargers, I assume that the suits are actually charging.

Moreover, the fans from suit #10 are not working. I have just checked the battery voltage which is 13V, I have also checked that the fans can physically move and nothing is blocking them to do so. I would be grateful for any help.
