Try the following before ordering your battery :

The problem with my cool pix aw130 was the little yellow plastic tab ( seen in one of the above photos ; step 3 ) that supposed to keep the battery shoved tightly against the terminals . In time , it wears and the battery no longer makes contact ; hence never getting recharged . The fix is simple ! Cut a 1/4” x 1/4” piece of paper , cardboard , or plastic , and wedge it between the yellow tab and the battery . Then recharge , as before .
