Open Question: Why is my Dell D610 laptop battery not charging?
I purchased an OEM replacement battery a couple of years ago and it worked fine for a couple of years, but eventually started to drain too quickly, so I bought another OEM battery.
Around the same time I also bough an OEM A/C adapter (PA-12 family).
The new OEM battery came fully charged, but when plugged into the AC adapter, would not charge back up. I had replacement battery sent and same thing.
So could it be the OEM A/C adapter?
Could it be something with the connecters in the laptop? The battery did work when the laptop was unplugged, it just won't recharge when plugged in.
Also, the computer works when the battery is removed altogether but the AC adapter is plugged in.
Perplexed. Any suggestions?

Open Question: My laptop's plugged in, not charging?
1. You need a new battery
2. You need a new power cord.
See if you can find someone that has a power cord that will fit your laptop. If it charges it then you know your cord is bad, if it does not charge it, you need a new battery. If'n you have to order either one, I use www.tigerdirect.com a lot and they have never let me down!
