    HP 8760w Elitebook not charging battery

    Hi,

    I've been troubleshooting this for some time and replaced the battery and charger but still get the orange/white blinking led indicating a charging or power issue.

    The same blinking led when no battery is in the laptop. Tried the hard reset many times by holding down the power button with no battery or power plugged in.

    Thinking that it may be the charging circuit but not sure if this is part of the power switch board?

    Also how on earth do you get into this laptop has anyone got some instructions and any ideas on what else to try?

      Dell E6400 PT434 type Battery Charging Stuck at 1%. Battery Pinouts?
      by Bowline
      My question pertains to understanding the control circuity inside a Dell PT434 type battery used in Dell E6400, E6410 and other Dell notebooks?

      Does anyone have a circuit diagram for the inside of a Dell PT434 battery and/or a description of how the control lines work to control this battery?

      My reason for asking is I have a battery which I cannot get to charge beyond 1% in a Dell E6410 or E6400.
      The LED bar graph charge indicator on the battery shows one LED lighted when the info button is pressed.
      I have tried multiple different Dell power adapters. My Dell...

      HP ProBook 445 G8 Battery not charging
      by Julian Bailey
      Hi all

      We have in a HP ProBook 445 G8 laptop with AMD Ryzen 7 CPU. When power is connected the power LED light blinks 5 times then stops. Normally HP laptops will blink this LED 10 times as it does a self test when the AC adaptor is inserted. So there must be some sort of short somewhere.

      The battery doesn't charge, and is erratic on the MM voltage. Bench PSU LED pulsates when the battery is connected also. So the fault must be on the charging circuit?

      I have gone around the board with a MM and cant find anything

      Windows shows the battery fine,...

      Laptop battery charging circuit
      by piernov
      1. Some theory
      1.1. Introduction
      Almost every laptop has a charging circuit of some sort, that does a few things:
      • Manages switching between AC adapter and battery power
      • Manages battery charging and generates power rail to charge battery


      There are 2 different designs to handle switching between AC adapter and battery power and feeding the system:
      • Hybrid power boost (HPB) and traditional circuits without power boost (see Warning in HPB section)
      • Narrow VDC (NVDC)

      Texas instrument has a nice overview of these technologies with some more details at https:...

      ThinkBook 15 G3 ACL Not Charging Battery - LA-K602P Board
      by kodox
      since i couldn't find schematic or boardview for this model (LA-K062P), i use closest board model found here https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...-and-boardview

      the schematic share same marking for each component, using same PD-Controller, same BQ25710, the only different is the battery cell used. LA-K061P uses 3S battery while LA-K062P use 4S battery per schematic.
      what i've done:

      Razor Blade Steath 13" RZ09-01963 plugged in Not Charging (new battery)
      by Shinju
      Hey All!

      Long time forum member here with a problematic laptop issue!

      I got a RZ09-0196 with a bloated battery (still worked and charged fine) I pulled the old cell pack out and installed a new cell pack in its place.

      The laptop would not power on with the new battery installed without the power supply being plugged in.

      When booting into Win10 (all up to date BTW) I saw the battery icon with 49% plugged in not charging.

      TL;Dr version, old battery worked, charged but was bloated, installed a new non OEM replacement, laptop/windows...
