Got this from a site
To check the power supply status, install a battery pack and connect an AC adaptor.

Check 1 If the DC IN LED blinks orange, go to Procedure 2.
Check 2 If the DC IN LED does not light, go to Procedure 3.
Check 3 If the battery LED does not light orange or green, go to Procedure 4.

Procedure 2 Error Code Check

If the power supply microprocessor detects a malfunction, the DC IN LED blinks orange.

The blink pattern indicates an error as shown below.

Start Off for 2 seconds
Error code (8 bit)
“1” On for one second
“0” On for half second

Interval between data bits Off for half second

The error code begins with the least significant digit.

Example: Error code 12h (Error codes are given in hexadecimal format.)
<----------Read
0 1 0 0 1 0 0 0
Start Bit 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Order -------->


Check 1 Convert the DC IN LED blink pattern into the hexadecimal error code and
compare it to the tables below.

Re: Toshiba Satellite L450D charging issue

I got it fixed, the BQ2475IA was not getting sufficient 19v supply from a 4R7 resistor, so I just replaced it and its charging perfect now

4R7 isn't that a coil?
