Contradictory Light Messages

When I put the button in the middle position to see if the battery is charged, it has a green light, i.e., is fully charged. But when I try to use it, the yellow light comes on for weak battery/needs recharging. And so it goes in circles. Is this compressor dead? Or is there something I can do to revive it?
