SL 300 - battery not charging

Hi guys,.

I have a 2 years Lenovo SL300 2738 - 52G (http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/quickPath.do?quickPathEntry=273852G). A week ago, that the battery has just stopped charging. It worked ok, normally for similar 2 - 2.5 h without recharging, nothing special was and once he has just stopped charging. The battery indicator shows that it is approximately 20% charged (but whenever I turn it on with the charger, it is less than 1%), but it does not load. It goes without saying that it is impossible to use it without the charger as well. Any ideas what could have caused this, or more importantly, if there is a way to fix it? I have to buy a new battery?

Thanks in advance,

Fawlty

Hi and welcome to the forum!

Try to charge the battery with a different compatible lenovo AC adapter, if that does not charge the battery then probably your is bad battery.

It will be useful.

  • Battery not charging - Thinkpad E531

    Dear Lenovo,

    I have been using Windows 7, but I recently changed to Windows 8.1.

    In Win7, I was able to install and use the Lenovo power management software, and I changed the threshold of 40 to 50% battery.

    After I installed Win8.1, I realized there is not any software for Windows 8.1 E531 power management, so I can't charge my battery above 50%.

    It seems that power management software makes somekind of related material change or do not remember my previous settings which I did in Win7.

    How can I change the thresholds without reinstalling windows 7 and power management software?

    Could you give me a link to a management software can be used for Windows 8.1 E531 Thinkpad power (which is 100% working)?

    Another solution?

    Thank you!

    Hi Tray86,

    Welcome to Lenovo Community!

    According to the request, we understand that you are facing problem with the battery not charging over 50% on your ThinkPad E531.

    You must change the setting of control dependence of Lenovo to always fully charged, please visit the link below and follow the steps from that.

  • BlackBerry Z10 battery not charging 100%, remains stuck at 84% to 91%

    Battery not charging 100%, remains stuck at 84% to 91%.

    Hi all

    I got my blackberry z10 not too long ago, and initially, the battery was not serious. A full charge is 100%.

    Now, I'm having the problem of not to charge up to 100%. He shows me the icon of "lightning" up to about 84% to 91% where it stops and shows me the '=' sign as in fully charged or not charging.

    I tried to restart the device and even turned off while loading see that fixes the problem or not, but nothing helped.

    Someone here has the same experience? Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you

    LEAVE it plugged into the wall charger (not USB > PC charger) for half an hour.

    With the charger plugged, remove the battey a minute then reinsert it.

    This will often reset the battery on the device reading to the actual battery charge.

    > I went back to the company and they couse tald me that the charger is fine and that the battery just died, that it was his time to die!

    Well, you can use the laptop without the battery, but only with the power adapter?
    If so, the adapter is OK and completely compatible.

    The AC adapter should support the 19V and 9, 5A
    The value of the ampere (A) could be a little different. It is important, but the Volt (V) value should be the same 19V

    In your case, the battery may be defective or there is a problem of electronic power supply on the motherboard.
    But I think that the battery needs to be checked first

  • DV4170US - new battery not charging

    My first battery had gradually shorter battery life, so I replaced it with a spare battery.  Who has worked for more than a year.  Then, it would not load.  I was able to use the laptop with the charger attached, but the battery would not charge.  I bought another battery of alternatives.  This has been running for only a few weeks and then would not charge.

    I tried to remove the battery laptop computer with attached charger, closure, reinstall the battery - the 'charge' indicator (Flash) lights up for a second two ro then turns off.  I also tried to boot the laptop then by installing the battery with it-same result.

    I also tried the utility assessment battery HP - it stated that the battery cannot be analyzed or something to that effect.

    FWIW, the battery and exhaust fan were always very hot on this machine.

    Any thoughts would be appreciated.  It's always a very good laptop with lots of life left in it.

    Bostonc,

    Thank you very much for your message! I'm really sorry you had these ongoing issues with the battery of your laptop.

    After the bios update and runs the battery check, unfortunately there is not much that can be done in the way of troubleshooting.

    Certainly, I suggest you buy your next HP battery, if only if you get the 1 year or cycle 300 warranty with the battery.  If he gets a new battery HP during the warranty period, I would certainly check again with Notepad. Without any other symptoms, I wouldn't necessarily assume that the issue goes beyond just the battery.

    Hmm... If this problem has appeared since the first day of the purchase, the home question battery might be related to battery failure.
    In this case, you will need to contact the service to fix.

    But just one question: it's your BIOS up-to-date?
    Check the update in the station of service and if available new version of BIOS; try to update the BIOS to the latest status.

  • Satellite P850 32Z: battery not charging

    Recently, I had problems with the battery, which means that I need to plug my AC adapter all the time. The battery in the taskbar icon indicates that the battery is 68% and these last days. Placing the cursor on the icon says "plugged in, not charging", and the battery on the laptop light does not illuminate. If I unplug the AC adapter, the laptop shuts down completely.

    I also tried the cold reset following instructions (from the section "Solving a problem" to support)
    1. power off your laptop and unplug the AC adapter
    2. remove the battery from the PC (for models with semi-fixed battery, please follow these instructions)
    3. press the button power for 30 seconds.
    4. then, plug in the adapter without the battery, turn on your computer and start Windows normally
    5. wait 5 min. and then replace the battery on while your laptop is turned on

    In step 4, when I turned on the laptop, the laptop starts and the battery light is on. But then after a few seconds, the battery light turns off and the laptop turns off.

    Someone had this problem?

    I have the same question. I bought a new battery. It worked for about 1 hour from 67 percent and amounting to 100% and then my laptop just died. Now my old battery indicates 0%, no charge, my new battery says 0%, 8 minutes at full load. So I'm a little confused about this and don't know if it's only a battery error. I'm going to service this week, so I know what the problem. I have the Satellite P850 - 33 m

  • HP Pavilion 15: Battery not charging

    I have a HP Pavilion 15, who began to do not charge the battery. It flows from the power of thin battery, but the battery is not more. I have to run my computer off the AC charger because I need what is left in the battery to start the computer. I had already tried to go through the system diagnostics. It says that the charger is not detected. I tested it and it is turning off the right amount of power, however.

    This is the charge Jack or the motherboard, I'm sorry to say. Decision-making is not expensive but still a repair difficult. The motherboard is expensive and difficult.
