    Lenovo G50 NM-A281 batt.not charging/discharge while adapter connected.

    Hi friends, this laptop had some water damaged, had couple of resistors that i replaced with same values. now it turns on and works fine WITHOUT battery.
    when i remove the battery drivers and restart computer, it recognizes battery and charges normally, BUT when i restart the laptop it NO LONGER recognizes the battery and "plugged in, not charging" msg comes up. it actually discharges while plugged in.

    schematic attached. Please help me troubleshoot this bad boy.

      did you try with another battery?
      update bios and make sure use the same resistor replaced

        Laptop stays on for only ~10sec when battery is connected, fine otherwise (Lenovo ThinkBook 15 G4 AMD)
        by wraster
        I have a Lenovo ThinkBook 15 G4 AMD (HLXB5 LA-M062P) that, when the battery is connected, starts up and shuts off in about 10 seconds, even when connected to power supply via USB-C charger. When the battery is disconnected, the computer stays on as in normal/expected operation (powered by USB-C charger input). I bought a new battery and see the exact same thing. My conclusion is it is not the battery itself but maybe some circuit or component involved in battery/DC-in crosstalk. I found a schematic but not boardview (request link below - sorry for the formatting, I'm not sure how to make an inline...
        Hi, I have a TB 15 Gen 4 that has an issue with the battery circuits. I believe the schematic is the same as this one: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubleshooting-hardware-devices-and-electronics-theory/troubleshooting-laptops-tablets-and-mobile-devices/schematic-requests-only/3522169-lenovo-thinkbook-14s-yoga-gen2-la-m062p

        Lenovo P43s won't boot with internal battery connected – looking for help diagnosing battery issue
        by code share
        Hi everyone,

        I'm having an issue with my Lenovo ThinkPad P43s. The laptop does not power on when the internal battery is connected, but it works fine on AC power alone (battery disconnected). Once the battery is reconnected, the system becomes completely unresponsive — no lights, no fan spin, nothing.

        Here's what I've tried so far:
        • Power/EC reset (held power button for 60 seconds with battery and AC disconnected)
        • Booted successfully on AC power only with the battery disconnected
        • Visual inspection of the battery — no swelling, burn marks, or connector damage
