Plugged in but not charging

Hello.

I noticed that my (big) 18 months, pavillion g6 Windows 8 ceased to charge its battery, I noticed yesterday and thought nothing of it but today I took the battery up to 92% but it does not load. The AC adapter led is flashing orange even when unplugged.

Any help will be much appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

    It is possible that the battery is bad or the charger is, and you might need help, from a real computer

    In fact, what causes a lot of wear on a battery empties it too low on several occasions. With today

    Here are some tips to help and troubleshoot battery issues.

    Old battery? Unplug the power to the computer - remove the battery and clean the contacts with a pencil
    eraser (do not use this, if your battery is fine slots - just clean up the edges of the knife which fit in)
    them and be careful). Batteries are old, or it could be a problem with the computer.
    Check with the support of the machine system, and many of them have on line forums.

    New Lithium-Ion type battery usually last longer if you do not unload then less than 30%

    does anyone have the PIN diagram of battery to test

    Hello

    For me, it looks like a battery would be defective.
    You are able to use the laptop only with the power adapter plugged?
    If so, this would mean that the adapter is OK.
    Is that battery begins to lose own performance after his indictment for 400 - 500 times. I would recommend so test the laptop using new, good battery under test.

  • My laptop is plugged in but not charging

    My phone displays 'sometimes' that it does not load even if the power is connected.

    I called HP Tech Support twice.  Each time, they asked me to update the BIOS and firmware

    before performing the battery test (both at startup and using HP diagnostic S/W).  The test always

    said that the battery is OK.  I can run the laptop without battery installed without any problem, which

    probably does the charger.

    This problem comes and goes.  HP is unwilling to do anything until the problem can be clearly

    identified.  My warranty is about to expire (in 3 days), and I'm afraid that this problem won't get

    resolved before this date.  Could someone help me with this problem?

    Thank you.

  • Z570: Plugged in but not charging status message

    Hello

    I recently had a computer laptop z570. I get status above message "trendy but no charging current.

    What is the reason for this?

    What is an adapter or battery problem or one other change of parameter to enable this

    I tried the 'Balanced' & 'High Performance' option on the options of power but had no luck.

    Can someone give clues on this issue because I believe that this must have been discussed before here?

    try to remove/replace the battery first. Also try this trick: remove the battery and AC power, press the power button / stop for 30-40 seconds, replace the battery and check if it works.

    Yesterday, I spilled my shake on my laptop... I managed to open it clean and everything works well EXCEPT MY battery, it is at 0% and every time I remove my AC my laptop turn off, then, what do I do is my battery died or my charger connector?

    And what do you recommend I made m from Chanute, Kansas. I tried to call the Toshiba support center, they said that my laptop is still in warranty but they can't help me because I can't drop my laptop to Toshiba service!

    Weird assistance):
    Thank you

    It is clearly defined that is covered by the warranty, and what cases can be repaired for free. Certainly, your question is not covered by the warranty. If there is mechanical damage caused by the owner he will not be repaired for free. Service box help m from you, but I'm afraid you have to pay something must be changed or repaired.

    On this virtual path we cannot say with certainty what the problem is here, but all electronic power supply must be checked. To be honest, I can't imagine that the battery may be defective.

    Anyway, what you can try is to get the new battery, test it and if the situation is the same it must be a problem with the power electronics placed on the motherboard.

  • Pavilion 15 laptop: my battery is plugged in but not charging

    Hello experts,

    The battery on my PC - computer HP Pavilion 15 laptop is connected but does not support. It seems to happen for a while, because he says that the battery is at 0%. I checked some old posts here, they spoke to remove battery to check the AC adapter and power cord. I guess I can't do that since the battery has zero percent left, once I unplugged the power cord, the laptop was gone black, so I guess it must be the battery problem. It seems pretty complicated to check if my battery is completely dead and needs to be replaced, is there an easier way for me to decide if I need a new battery?

    PS. I tried Microsoft compatible control ACPI battery to uninstall and reinstall method, it didn't work on mine.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi @greengem,

    Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A place where you can find solutions for your problems with the help of the community!

    I stumbled upon your post on the laptop and wanted to help you! I looked in your question about your HP Pavilion Notebook 15 and problems with the battery, no load before turning off. Here is a link to calibrate and test the battery.  Here is a link to solve the problems of the battery on a laptop. You should be able to complete these with the laptop plugged into the AC adapter.

    The power adapter is the one that was purchased with the portable?

    Plug in the power adapter directly into a wall outlet works. Do not connect it a power strip, surge arrester, or secondary power source as this could cause and issue.

    Please let me know how it goes.
