my son has a laptop around 3 years old he has been away for 10 months so it has remained unused apart from me charging it 5 months ago when i started it charged it for around 6 hours then shut it down
now its dead as in nothing
plug in the charger red light and 0.8w consumption so no charge
remove and reinsert battery several time as well as lead to charger and charger to laptop in case off bad contact nothing at all no lights no sounds just dead
any suggestions
The battery may have gone totally flat, too flat for the charger to charge it.
You could also try it with no battery, but that is a long shot. I have to ask, have you tried a different charger?
Above are my opinions Below is my signature.
Would you hit a nail with a shoe because you don't have a hammer? of course not, then why work on anything electrical without a means of testing Click Here to buy a "tester" just because it works, does NOT mean it is safe.
What model number lappy? Google the issue with the model number and inevitably someone else will have come across exactly the same issue and, perhaps, offer a solution.
yes tried it without battery thanks
i am assuming the battery and the battery is part off the charging loop but would like confirmation before spending any money lol
ok thanks kelly will try that lol
sony sve151j11m
ok up date so far the problem seems to be bad connection between cord and laptop
push the connector in nought push a few mm more contact
the battery must also be below the cut off level or goosed as it shuts off on power on disconnection
will leave it charging all night to see what happens
thanks again for your help
