Here is what I remember.

Yes the original Segway would have needed a software upgrade to accommodate Li-ion batteries.
I did a road trip to most parts of Australia, and did it all, years ago.
When I completed the upgrade, I affixed a flyguy round logo to the rear of the chassis.
So it would be obvious to me, if it ever came back for service.
Does yours have a sticker ?

I guess if you got one green light, then yes your machine has been upgraded.

If you have one green LED and one red LED when charging, there are 2 possibilities.
1
Yes the CSB ( which contains the charger ) may be faulty.

2
One of the batteries or battery connectors is at fault.
Swap batteries, and see if fault stays same or changes sides.

It may be possible ( but expensive ) to have an expert in switch mode supplies fix the CSB without any drawings.

Cheers
Michael
