You haven't actually mentioned whether or not the charging light starts to blink, if it doesnt have a look at the contacts inside the battery recess slot on the back of the camcorder and check that they are at the same level to each other and that one hasn't got pushed in or distorted in some way whereby its not connecting with the battery.
If all appears OK and the light still doesnt blink then it can possibly indicate that the battery charge circuit fuse has blown as "one of those things", (not unheard of) or that the circuit itself has developed a fault.
