The charger can be plugged in either way around, it makes no difference.

If the re-wiring is correct (you've double-checked), the battery is uncharged (checked voltage or tested in bike) and the charger (when on and connected) shows red and green lights (red = power on & green = charged) then it sounds (to me) like, either the charger or the BMS is faulty.

Perhaps it's time to email Li Ping to see if he can help.

Just got a reply from Li Ping and he is posting a new charger to me and has sent instructions, thanks to everyone for your help- may need it again when the new charger arrives!
