Satellite A500-19 t - battery no longer charges

Hello

I have a Satellite A500-19 t and since last week my battery is fresher.
When I start the laptop, the battery light is turned on for a few seconds, and then turns off.

In windows, he knows the battery is in place, but it does not load it. Is the battery that is dead?
Should I buy a new one?

Or could it be something else?
Has anyone experienced this problem?

Hello

Try to update the BIOS.
Sometimes the BIOS update allows to solve some battery problems, but to be honest, it sounds a little like a malfunction of the battery in such a case, the battery must be replaced.

Incidentally... try this work around:

Disconnect the AC
Shutdown
Remove the battery
Connect AC
Startup
Under the category of batteries, all ads by Microsoft ACPI compatible control method battery do a right-click and select Uninstall (it ok if you only have 1).
Shutdown
Disconnect the AC
Insert the battery
Connect AC
Startup

    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.

  • Satellite A300-1BZ - new battery does not charge

    Hello

    I bought a new battery (PA3534U-1BRS) because my old battery (3 years) hold office as well as it should!
    The new battery will not charge, the Red battery light suggesting everything of fine, but then begins to Flash after 20 minutes.
    When I turn on the computer the battery indicator on the taskbar in Vista tells me the device is turned on, but the battery won't charge.

    The company where I bought the battery has issued me with a replacement, but I'll always have the same problem.
    They have listed the battery as a genuine, and there any labelling even as my old battery.

    The battery would be false or toshiba has changed the specifications of this battery in particular.
    The reason for my last statement is the fact that my old battery contacts look more apparent than those on the new.

    I have no reason to believe that the company is not kosher because I returned the first battery to address personally after realizing that they were on my doorstep!
    Fake or not compatible?

    The comments appreciated.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    Maybe you used the battery is not compatible, but AFAIK the PA3534U-1BRS is designed for Satellite A200 A300 L300 L300D
    So it should work.

    However, I recommend buying a battery of origin of Toshiba ASP.

    Contact a local Toshiba authorized service partner and order a new compatible battery for this laptop.

    I think the new battery should work.

  • Satellite A500 / 01 K-battery draining all off

    Hi all

    I have an A500 / 01 K. Battery average of 8% per whist day, that the computer is turned off. When removed he loses not any charge.
    Clues please?

    See you soon
    GT

    Hi gtpeyote,

    In my opinion, 8% are ok and it s not unusual. Someone told me that the battery could be empty all night up to 10%.

    It is important that you disable in the BIOS Wake up LAN/keyboard and USB Sleep & Charge. That s all that you can do to improve this value.

  • Satellite M45-S165 new battery does not charge from 25%

    Hello

    It is of a Satellite M45-S165 running Windows XP SP2.

    I just put in a new battery of Technuity sold at Circuit City. Followed the instructions and let it charge for 10 hours before you use it. The laptop turned off while charging.

    On the laptop Toshiba Power Saver says that the battery has been charged only 25%. He just won't let it load more than that.

    I close GST since the the Task Manager and open the gauge on the control panel Windows. After you run just the battery for a while I tried to recharge it. But the windows power meter is showing that the battery is charging, but who is stuck at 3%.

    The battery is new, so no idea on what it prevents to load completely?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    At first, I must say that you've done everything right and this is probably not due to the battery (I hope you bought the right one). The question is are at - there some problem with electronic control gear.

    You must understand that it is not easy to simply explain to these issues and to see what the problem is here, it is necessary to run the diagnostics program and check the electronic feature of the power supply.

    This can be done by only authorized service provider. If you do need to make the decision. Make a call and ask them what can be the reason for this. Inform you of what you can do with it. What else can you do?

  • How long can I work on Satellite L30 when the battery is fully charged?

    Help, please. My battery is lasting only 01:14 min. My laptop is Satellite L30.

    It's normal. I'm L30 too and it has a battery of 2000mAh. But I got a new battery 4400mAh for a month, and there approximately 2, 5-3 hours of battery life. If the original battery is not good enough you must one buy a new one with the largest capacity.

  • Battery no longer charges. Fastboot OK

    Hi all

    After a long time with Android phones since 2009, it is the first time I have a question.

    Yesterday, I noticed that my phone was low battery and charge it overnight. Do not pay attention a lot the morning and used it a little bit. At work, I noticed that the battery was very low and went in there not load more than 3%. Leave it as this time a couple and realized it loads more - Screenshot 1

    After a long call this morning, the battery dies and it is now impossible to load.

    What I've done.

    When I plug, small battery + lignthing symbol. Nothing else. (shouldn't see an animation of the battery? I don't remember that the battery of this phone generally never dies.)

    Fastboot works well, I tried to fastboot erase userdata and cache, just in case.

    Time by pressing volume down + a couple of seconds, by following the instructions in the help forums, I see the small red symbol (and load text, but obviously do not charge) - screenshot 2

    When you press power + volume down on 15-20 years, same scenario as before, but text is green - screenshot 3

    I tried to contact the seller and the guarantee to work, but they are still trying to contact Motorola and seems complicated.

    Please help me, I have to use an iPhone 6 pending a guarantee/answer is just... so... iPhonish...


  • Satellite A500 - Remove the battery when connected to the network?

    Hello

    I bought a new Satellite 500 and I would use it as much as possible. I'm not sure the stage of development of this battery. Should I remove the battery when I use the laptop at all times with the net supply?
    Or this does not damage the battery longer years yet there is, or is the problem of the destruction of the battery because of the heat and being reloaded frequently persists?

    I'm sorry if I could post to redundantly, but it is difficult to search for information, since I'm not a native speaker.
    I encourage you just for a small tip for a related thread if available.

    Thank you very much!

    Hello

    To be honest, I often work with connected AC/DC adapter, but I never removed my battery. Sometimes I decide to work in another room and then I just unplug the AC adapter and that s all the! :)

  • Satellite X 200 - 25I - battery will not charge

    I have the Satellite X 200-25 l running Vista Home Premium 32 - I have been too slow to ask about it, but the battery simply does not load. I tried to remove and plug the power several times as a 'solution' that someone suggested, but it has no effect.
    I don't want to buy a new battery without first establishing that it is not a problem between the main system and the logic of the battery.

    It has never been directly from new, but I didn't know it would fail completely. Thank you Bobby to Aberdeen, United Kingdom

    Hi bobbaxter09,

    Have you ever tried to recharge the battery when the phone is turned off? So you can make sure that it s not related to software or drivers.

    The battery can be recharged up to 500 times, and after that, it must be replaced. So, theoretically, it could be a malfunction of the battery and you need a new.

    Therefore, you can contact a service provider authorized in your country. Guys can order all Toshiba original parts that they work properly with your laptop.

  • Satellite L500-1DT - new battery cannot be charged.

    Hello
    I just got a new battery for my laptop and tried to charge it, but in vain. When I plug it in, he acknowledges he did pay, but then forgets his load, or plugged.

    I have to do this know, the new battery isn't OEM so it could be the problem, I try my mother he's in Toshiba, then report.

    Hello

    > the new battery isn't OEM so that could be the problem
    Yes, this could be the problem if it s a 3rd party battery. Only Toshiba spare parts are pre-tested and designed for Toshiba laptops.

    In your case I contact an authorized service provider and ask for a new and original Toshiba battery. Guys can order all spare parts Toshiba.

  • Satellite 3000-100: 2nd battery does not charge.

    Hi, I have just a PA3099U-1BRS bought 2nd battery internal bay for Satellite 3000-100, but he remains at 0% and will not load. I read the areas of support of the site and it says I need at least v1.90 BIOS and I 2.40 (otherwise it could have been the cause of the problem), is there anything else I can try? Thanks, Tommy

    Hello

    If I remember well enough the Satellite 3000 features of a small reset button must be pressed with a pen. Check it please and if yes put the new battery inside, start the machine and immediately press the reset button and hold for about 15 or 20 seconds.

  • Satellite A500 - 14Q: ECO button no longer works

    Hello

    I have a little problem with my A500. When I press the 'ECO' button to switch to eco mode and run the Toshiba Eco Utility, I can hear a "beep", but absolutely nothing happens.

    I think I know where is the problem and how to solve it, but I need some information.
    When everything was ok, I ran the Toshiba Assist (for another problem of fan) and I found an icon caled "supported of the TOSHIBA buttons" I translate by "TOSHIBA button support" or "Settings button". Then, for no change, I clicked on "cancel registration" or "cancel parameters", but he did in fact clear the previous settings that have been factory settings...

    Since then (or unfortunately), my 'ECO' key does not work...
    I said that when I "manually" switch eco mode, the button becomes green anyway.

    I want to find is the "TOSHIBA button support" original settings But if you have some other suggestions to solve my problem of button I am listening to you.

    Thank you and sorry for my bad English (again)

    I do not have the A500, but if you want to have default settings best for you is to remove preinstalled value added Package, restart your computer and install the latest version of the Toshiba support page.

    After doing this, you should again have the default settings.
    Test it. You can't do anything wrong.

  • Satellite A500 - built in microphone no longer works

    Hello everyone, Im new here, but I have nowhere to go.

    I've never had a problem with my microphone before and in the last 2 days, it has stopped working. The only thing I've updated was my Windows, which is Windows 7 64 bit. The microphone is selected in the Audio tab on the Control Panel, but it won't just pick up sounds, just annoying static. I already downloaded the driver of sounds more up-to-date on the Toshiba site and I tried, but it did not help.

    If someone did something wrong be thrilled, it is really affecting my studies.

    Thank you in advance,

    Jonathan.

    Hey Buddy,

    You use the microphone with an external application like Skype or how do you use it?

    The microphone is an internal webcam part, so if you have problems with the internal mic I recommend reinstalling the driver for the webcam that you can download on the official website of Toshiba:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com

    Remove the old webcam driver and restart the computer. Then try to install a more recent.

    How old is your laptop and the battery?

    The point is that, after a long period of use of each battery stops the functionality.

    My battery in the laptop of 5 years is not working too.
    I could replace it, but I use the old good classic as a desk for laptop and it s still connected to the power adapter so I put t need a new battery.

    However, if you want you could test whether a new battery will help you.

    Good bye
