Tecra A9, power - battery is not

I use a Tecra A9. It is about 3 years old now. But I seem to have a problem with the battery charging.

Connected to the external power supply is functioning oke. But the battery is not charged. When you remove the power cord, the laptop is running on battery power.

I removed the battery from the laptop and reinsert the it. Then, it recharges for several seconds, then stops to load again. Remaining in charge is now at about 90%.
I also removed and cleaned the contacts on the battery and the laptp. But the same thing happened. A few seconds cooldown, it stops to load.

What could be the problem?

Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Kind regards
René

I think the problem is the battery.
It s old and can't hold a charge more. Therefore, replace the battery.

Check the reference number of this dough... it should be placed at the back of the battery.
Then, you can google for this part on the net to get the right battery.

    My battery is not seen by my Tecra M5, but still fresh and feeds the laptop, I found info that offers as well as an upgrade of the BIOS might help, but the software update me gives an error message "[error] AC adapter is not connected, or battery power is not enough."

  • Tecra M5 - Toshiba Power Saver did not do his job properly

    Hello

    After looking for a tool to silence my Tecra M5 awhile, I found an apparently nice application called Toshiba Power Saver. Unfortunately this tool doesn't seem to work properly. I played with the [slider cooling method | http://img200.imageshack.us/img200/8008/powersaver.jpg] (click to see a picture) and here's how it works.

    The cooling method can be set to one of four options: battery optimized Performance, maximum Performance and cooling optimized, where one is supposed to be the quietest, and those of other more noisy.

    Assume that the cpu fan spins at high speed at the start and I do not have anything on my laptop. I move the cursor to the battery optimized setting, click on apply and the fan (instantly) slows down (yay!). Then I need to do something about hunger for a while and finally the fan turns up the noisy power level. I then doing nothing of the brand-new, but the fan is like that * ever *. The processor is as cold as ice, the air is blown could freeze the fingers, but the fan spins like crazy to wake up my neighbours on the road.

    I'm really sure that the cpu is cool? Yes. Why?
    Because when I move the slider for Performance affecting now and click on apply the fan slows down (right) and remains like that until I start working on something new. Then I stop doing what I was doing and the continuous spinning fan * ever * once again.

    So I change the method of cooling for battery optimized setting back again once, click on apply and the fan slows down... and so on and so forth, stuck in a vicious circle.

    The key to success here is keep pressing the button apply, which the Power Saver application should do from time to time and not me and not forgetting what it is here for.

    What is the problem with this app? Is there a fix available (or alternative)?
    The version I have is 7.11 and runs on XP Pro SP3.

    Hello

    What about your ad here?

    TOSHIBA Power saver is tool Toshiba use for years and it is preinstalled on 98% of all models of Toshiba laptops. So, in my opinion, this tool is certainly one of the best and most effective tool designed by Toshiba.

    Over the last 10 years, I have worked with many Toshiba laptops and I used this tool on each laptop to optimize my work. Mix between the good performance of the processor and method of cooling level offers enough power for each working day and with a low level in the method of cooling laptop runs pretty quiet.

    Maybe stupid sounds now, but I have noticed that the Portege notebooks are, perhaps, more sensitive and using tool electric saver you cannot have the same effect as on certain portable Satellite and Tecra.

    I do not think that this tool doesn't work properly on your Portege but Portege laptops have a specific design and material may reach a higher temperature faster than on the other laptop models.
    Portege laptops have excellent and powerful material packed in a box of small notebook.
    Sometimes laptop runs quiet and if you just connect the USB mouse the cooling fan starts to run strong enough. A small business can speed up physical activity and if temperature sensors have noticed a higher temperature for a degree C only, the fan control mechanism get information starts to cool the fan turns.

    It is really not easy to tell if there is something wrong or right. My personal opinion is that everything is OK. You can try to talk with the service of Toshiba. Call them and ask for explanations. They should have enough experience with this stuff.

    In any case, good luck!

  • Tecra M4 - dead battery - is this a BIOS or firmware problem?

    Hi all

    I'm on a Toshiba * Tecra M4 * model * PTM40E-01L01RGR * Bios version * 3.5. *
    From one day to the other, the battery is completely dead - this means time battery falls about 2 hours to zero in one day.
    Now, the battery may not be chanrged no more - it's as if there is none installed.
    So no start no power no power cord and if you unplug the phone cord is switched off immediately.

    From my experience if availability of battery becomes slowly shorter and shorter the battery is old or fails. But if she doesn't have a function from one day to the other, I'd say it's a typical problem of firmware or bios.

    Is there an update of the firmware or bios Tecra M4 (support page SAIS not - last date is 3.5 installed) or is it a software patch or solution that I can use to recover the battery live?

    Thanks for the help!

    Michael

    Hello

    All new BIOS updates are published on the European driver Toshiba page.
    If you use the latest version of the BIOS (compared to the version on the page), then other BIOS is not available.

    Of course, it of really strange that your battery doesn't work more than one day to the next, but I would still recommend a new battery to check because it s really sound like a battery problem.

    Cheers mate

  • Camileo X 150-battery will not charge

    Hello all - I bought a camcorder Camileo X 150 nine this week. The camcorder only has power when it is connected to the power adapter or the USB cable. I tried to load it on Friday, had died eight hours, came back and the battery still had no power. Then last night I load from one day to the next, still no power this morning.

    I tried everything to implement but it still does not power upward only when connected to AC or USB - maybe the battery is faulty or I do something wrong?

    I would appreciate any help with this issue.

    You did not... something wrong to charge the battery, you must connect the power adaptor only... then the battery should start loading...

    But it might be possible that the battery is discharged deeply (empty), and in this case, the adapter must be connected at least 24 hours...

    Then, check again, and if the battery would not charge even if the AC adapter is connected to a longer period of time, get in touch with your dealer camcorder...
    Maybe the battery / camcorder is faulty.

  • Satellite U500 - 11 C - power supply unit not detected

    Hello

    on my Satellite U500 - 11 C, the power supply is no longer recognizes (the rest green LED turns off when I plug)

    I tested my diet and it's OK

    I disassemble my laptop to check the connector and the power is OK of the external connector to the connector on the motherboard.

    with my battery, the computer works normally (but the battery is not more)

    You have an idea on how to solve this problem?
    What can I check?

    > Do you have an idea on how to fix this?
    If the battery and the mains adapter are ok, while a single problem can cause this: faulty motherboard.
    Maybe there is something wrong with the electronic power supply on the motherboard.

    Of course this is only my personal opinion, but I put t see any other reason for that

  • Re: Satellite C660 - 1 M 0 - battery does not work long

    I have a new Satellite C660 - 1 M 0, and after using it for a week, the battery does not as long as compared to the first time that I used it.

    I heard that a charge of initial battery life of 8 hours is required before the 1st use. Is this true?

    Hi richardvdoran,

    The battery time depends on usage and what you do. For example if you run a large number of programs and work with a high CPU utilization low autonomy and requires AC adapter / CC soon. Also surf the Internet needs battery power.

    You can improve the battery life if you use the eco mode power plan. This will reduce the brightness and other things to improve the battery life.

    First battery charge time may be 8 hours but that's different and according to other things.

  • Battery does not charge, but by Satellite Pro L510 is running in battery mode

    Hi, I had a few odd battery problems these days:

    I had charged my laptop completely to 100% and then used it on the train on my way home (in Windows 7 64-bit), how I got it to about 70%, shut down normally, put it in my bag and left there until I got home. When I got home, I tried to turn it on but it lights and battery light orange blinking indicating that there can be no charge. I plugged it in and it worked as usual (Linux), so don't think too hard on this subject.

    Later I realized that the battery was still the load after longer that it should have been and running the acpi + (linux) command told me has the battery + charge, 0%, charge at the zero rate - will never fully charge. + I disconnected to see if it worked, and the battery lasted as usual, although always it's 0% charge rate.

    I started in Windows 7, and the battery reported that it was at 68%, so I assumed it was back to normal. A while later, I noticed that he was still 68%, despite having connected for a while - at least an hour. Start on linux, acpi showed data battery normal search, except that it was 'blocked' to 68%.

    I disconnected the laptop and run it as usual, and it ran until he cut; I guess with him out of power. I plugged it back in and it is 'charge' again, even if it is still 0% battery and "load at the zero rate".

    Before all this happened, the battery works well - apparently to 94% of its capacity. It would be modified for a few hours unplugged play movies or games.

    Summary: PC laptop battery suddenly going to works "attributed to the zero rate" and 0% complete; battery still seems to work very well, seems fresh and portable no power plugged in but the battery is not 'charging' or have his percentage of charge remaining increase.

    Someone at - it ideas? I have yet to try a BIOS update, but it seems that there is one available, so I will give that a try. I feel that the problem is not the battery as the battery controller, so I don't want to invest in a new battery without knowing it, the problem will be solved.

    Thank you!

    Hello

    I think you should try upgrading the BIOS
    BIOS default value, and then try to charge the battery again.

    > get the impression, the problem is not the battery as the battery controller, so I don't want to invest in a new battery without knowing it, the problem will be solved.
    Well, it of really difficult to tell if the battery or the mobo may be affected
    In my opinion, the battery must be tested without a doubt
