    Acer ES 15 not charging

    Hi Everyone,

    ACER ES 15
    MODEL: ES1-531-P0HG

    It has a built in battery AC14B18J. I want to know if the problem is a dead motherboard or a dead battery. Does anyone have a pin-out of this battery? So far I have measured the battery voltage (between black and red leads) 0v. Please help.

      Replace the battery. Battery is a common failure point and is expected to die after a few years. The motherboard is not.

              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...

              Acer A315-41G similar to AN515-42, AC OK Battery OK but not charging
              by titomno2
              Hi guys,
              I currently trying to figure out why the laptop of my friend did not charge.
              It is a Acer AN515-42 (Ryzen 5 2500U), I manage to make it works on AC and battery but no charging.
              At first it was not working on Battery, I discovered that PQ201 was knocked off and replace it => work on battery precharged on another computer.
              I also checked the small resistors between PQ312 and PQ201 and even if they are ugly values are OK.
              My issue, when I plug the charger computer off, it drains 0.25A during few seconds with amber light on (charging) then amber light blinks...

              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,...

              Acer Nitro 5 not charging but working with battery
              by Source Code
              Hello Everyone

              First I must say I am trying to learn electronics. I have an Acer Nitro 5. Board is LA-861P. The laptop does not charge but when it has battery life it would power on and work fine. I have use a multimeter to check the charger and I get 19v.

              Input on PBQ3 mosfet is 19v but no output or very low voltage. The voltage on PCZ65 and PCZ48 is 2v and it keep dropping after putting the charger for a few second. Battery pin would give like 0.200v declining.

              If I put the laptop off for like 2-3 months it would start charging again but I need to do this...

              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:...
