    Toshiba C55-A5310 - power on battery only, won't charge, not DC harness

    DC Jack is fine (and duplicated issue with a replacement).
    LED indicates A/C power and Charging. OS reports plugged in and charging but device will not power up on A/C without battery nor will it charge battery (duplicated with 3 known good batteries). I'm having to charge battery in another unit to get anything to work at all.

    Fuse6050 seems good.

    Giving it stink-eye doesn't seem to help...

    Only other indicator I have is without battery when I (attempt to) turn it on, SOMETIMES something tries to jump the fan enough that I can hear it (and see it barely move) click in a rhythmic pattern, almost 1 second apart like a ticking clock.

      Q6011 tests open. Q6010 tests normal. Not finding these online though. E4 GND 5P0805

          I have the same issue, same model - works fine with a charged battery (I can charge the battery on another Toshiba) but not on A/C. Adapter tests fine. Power switch tests fine. Jack and harness tests fine. Power traces to motherboard, but no LEDs or signs of life, no fan, no post. With a charged battery everything works perfectly. Have gone through eliminating components but can't find one that is blocking boot or charging.

          Did you find your solution or does anyone else have a solution? I hate to toss this laptop...

            Vostro 3400 (LA-K033P) won't charge battery, everything else ok
            by techfreak9356
            I bought a Vostro 3400 motherboard (LA-K033P) to upgrade over my damaged Inspiron 5593 (LA-J091P) board. Everything else is ok except for the battery. This battery I am using now is already a replacement one since I disposed of the bloated original one. Back in the Inspiron 5593 motherboard, the battery charges fine and is identified just fine. However, with the upgraded motherboard, suddenly the replacement battery is labeled as "Not a dell battery". When I borrow a similar battery from my colleague (which did not have replacements yet), it is identified and charges just fine.

            How can I charge that battery pack?
            by razenxd
            Hello,
            it's not a laptop/desktop related question but I figured that someone here will have the right knowledge.
            At work we use a few Aldebaran(now Softbank/United Robotics group) Nao Robots which they use some custom 6S li-on battery packs.
            Nao robots tends to draw from the battery even if they are shut down, and the BMS tends to be a little aggresive, if the pack stays on a turned off robot for 3 months it's gonna lock and will refuse to charge.

            Now, I have noticed a few things.
            The "dead" battery, while connected to charger and NOT Charging will...

            Acer a515-43 low battery charge voltage
            by ruletero
            Hi

            Acer A515-43
            LA-H801P

            Fail: Does not charge battery, has low voltaje on connector.

            Laptop didn't want to turn on, only charge led blinked.

            I found PQB5 (mosfet high battery charger) in short, voltaje in +12.6V_BATT was 19 v ...

            I changed it, changed PQB6 too and now battery charger voltage is 4.4V but battery is 3 cell, 11.25v, then is very low to charging.

            Laptop turns on without battery and works fine, but with battery turns on and turns off inmediately, I suspect battery bad but I don't know...

            Charge a L19D3PDA battery externally from the laptop
            by Klevjetack
            Is there a way to externally charge a L19D3PDA battery from the laptop. I have a broken charging port on my laptop and am trying to find a way to charge the battery for it. I have been doing some research and I have found that there is a module, TP4056, that can be used to charge Li-ion batteries. It says it is used to charge single cell Li-ion batteries. The L19D3PDA battery is a three cell battery. Is it possible to use the module to charge my battery and it would just be very slow? Or would that be a bad idea. Is there a different kind of module I can use to charge my Li-ion three cell battery?...

            Latitude 3301 not charge battery
            by dclass-pro
            Hi guys I have this dell that with the battery charged it turns on correctly, but if I connect the charger I get the charging symbol but it doesn't charge the battery.
            I found the shorted charger PU4401 ISL9538h that had pins 14 and 15 shorted and I replaced it. but it still doesn't charge.
            I noticed 2 things:
            1) without the battery connected if I connect the power supply, on the SDA and SCL pins of the battery I have 0V I measured the resistance with ground and it is very high, if I connect the battery I have 3v on the 2 lines.
            2) if I try to turn it on without the battery...
