    It appears that the battery is dead and unable to charge to the ratings on its package.

    Source a fresh known good battery and test again.

    Not sure if this design should function without the battery or not.

        You can contact your local Caterpillar office for parts. That is the best option for the replacement battery.

        Where are you located?

        I believe their HQ is around Chicago area in the US. We have done some design work for them in the past for their production lines.

            ASUS X54H laptop thinks it's always charging even with charger unplugged
            by flat-earther
            The charging indicator light on my ASUS X54H laptop is always on even when the charger is disconnected.

            Windows also shows ''Plugged in'' when charger is not connected.

            This problem started year ago gradually, when unplugging the charger the charging light took several seconds to disappear, then minutes, and now almost always on even when unplugged for an entire day.
            Strangely, before sometimes immediately when plugging in the charger the charging light went away, and later came back with it connected.
            If I let battery run out and say it has 3% Windows will...

            Dell Latitude 5420 wont turn on when charger is connected
            by nikolayu
            I have Latitude 5420 that it's working fine on battery but when it's plugged on USB C charger it wont turn on.
            Battery is charging fine. Also, if I connect the charger while laptop is on, everything is fine, it will charge.
            The same thing if I connect to other USB C port.
            Charger is OEM

            ISL6257HRZ ISL6257HRZ-T Laptop Battery Charger Datasheet

            Highly Integrated Narrow VDC Battery Charger for Notebook Computers

            The ISL6257HRZ ISL6257HRZ-T is a highly integrated battery charger controller
            for Li-Ion/Li-Ion polymer batteries. ISL6257 is designed for
            Narrow VDC applications where the system power source is
            either the battery pack or the regulated output of the charger.
            This makes the max voltage to the system equal to the max
            battery voltage instead of the max adapter voltage. Operating
            at lower system voltage can improve...
