How To Fix Common Issue On Dell Laptops Plugged In Not Charging

[@lapfix]

We have seen this issue quite a bit..enough to make a video. Like and Sub if you liked it or learned something 😁

[@tshegokekana7162]

Where are you located

[@TXCOyt]

Would love a link to the ac the female end of the ac adapter you used

[@SlavTiger]

tbh hoping dell loses business partners who got sick of this happening to the laptops they gave a premium for

[@SlavTiger]

any advice for a faulty identifier chip on the laptop side? a shock damaged the handshake chip and now all chargers are like this even with a perfect condition jack. i cant find replacements for the chip easily

[@michaelharris1535]

@@SlavTiger I have had so many laptops over the past 20 years and this is the first time that anything has actually broken.

[@kofiintsiful7571]

Thank you so much for this video.. It fixed my problem. My Dell laptop wasn't charging, I searched all over for a solution. I bought a new battery, updated battery drivers but still the problem wouldn't go ..Then I watched this video, and learnt that problem was with the bent pin in the Ac charger. I Straightened it, and its now charging fine. Thanks again!

[@Huggybear101]

This did the trick for me! Thank you!!!! I saw, after taking the laptop apart that the power port had been pushed inside the laptop, so the center pin couldn't make contact. I loosened the screw holding the port, put it where it is supposed to be, then tightened it down as best I could. Hope it holds for a while, but at least now the battery is finally charging!

[@Huggybear101]

I posted 11 months ago on here that this video helped me with another Dell computer. Yesterday I completed this repair on my sister's computer that's the same model as the one used in your example. Couldn't have been easier. Part was 6 bucks on Amazon and delivered overnight. I emphasized to my sister that how one plugs in and unplugs the computer goes a long way towards this part lasting. Again, many thanks for this video! And yes, I subscribed 🙂

[@nickkrueger4762]

This addresses one cause but it remains a problem that Dell laptops will randomly not recognize chargers when there is nothing wrong with the charger or the port. Currently have a six month old Dell Precision 5550 with three USB-C ports and it will randomly not recognize any OEM 130W charger plugged into the port - even when it has been working fine, powered down, and restarted the next day with no changes, but then will not recognize the charger. Several reboots over a half hour, moving the charger to different ports, eventually gets it working again. Its been driving me and our IT nuts and is a chronic, ongoing issue with multiple machines in our office.

[@ThatCapeCodGuy]

I have a Dell Vostro 7500 and buying the dc input jack solved the problem. It was not my AC adapter. I bought the input jack on Amazon shipped $11. Could have had it on Ebay for $7.50 shipped but shipping time was excessive 3-4 weeks. DELL sucks telling you its the charger. Thanks for making the video.

[@anth0r]

Thank you dude for using the microscope. I have the same issue and I’m using my scope to inspect the jack and the charger cable itself. The jack looks messed up on my laptop but the issue I was having was finding a close up video of what it should look like. Then I found your video and bam. All my questions answered

[@bdkw1]

This is a bullchit. If it's making enough contact to run the computer it's good enough to charge too. This is 100% a software issue from Dell. We need a software fix to make it use whatever power is available.

[@Charmeze]

Why does this comment not have thousands of likes? People give this man some love!!!

[@ВикторГиль-ф2ф]

I confirm. I can fix charging issue for several days by removing battery, pressing power button without AC adapter for several seconds and inserting battery back. Battery will charge without problem, but after several days issue returns back. So, it is not problem of AC adapter or connector or battery. It is problem from Dell. Easy fixing way is just stop using Dell products.

[@RathaGamerGirl]

Brilliant, thanks for the hint. The same instructions are actually provided by dell on their homepage, but this was more detailed. As for Germany, purchasing the part directly from Dell was a lot cheaper than bezos portal.

[@gges1605]

Been having the same issue with del xps 15 9500 i9 which has 130 watt USB charger and already purchased an expensive new charger from dell though there doesn't appear to be any damage to original, fault actually disappeared after the charger was ordered but we kept the new one thinking perhaps it was on its way out, That was a few weeks ago but yesterday problem resurfaced and neither of the chargers worked, then this morning again it works, bios reports healthy battery and recognise that charger is 130w now that its working fine. Very frustrating problem on what was a very expensive laptop thats 20 months old

[@BuddyQuaid]

Same thing happening to me but the problem happened after I replaced the battery with a new Dell battery. One of my chargers doesn't work and it's a OEM Dell charger that came with the computer. I have another Dell charger and it works. The other one was working just find with the old battery. There's no reason it shouldn't work. Any ideas?

[@Orange-Jumpsuit-Time]

Did you find that needle in a haystack, because your detailed explanation is a bunch of hay.

[@hdtramp]

Was informative but would've been nice to show more of how to do the repair. Didn't really show how to disconnect the port itself other than a fast preview of taking the screw out from one end.

[@Orange-Jumpsuit-Time]

Each Dell is different, mine for example, Dell M4700, to change that port you have to dismantle the whole computer to get at it, I'm not kidding.

[@jesica9540]

Thank you so much!!! you helped me fix my issue with a laptop I bought two weeks ago lol!! Thankfully the ac adapter was bent and all I had to do is straighten the pin with a tiny screwdriver. THANKY YOU!

[@lenielynbaril3335]

Thank you for sharing your skills and knowledge, Sir. God bless you more. I was able to fix my laptop charger too through your video.

[@j.lietka9406]

Thought I had already subbed! 😮 So on that Dell, the DC in jack is not soldered to the mobo? Do you perform a battery test after changing the jack? Thank you

[@MLSA]

Bro WTF this is crazy hahah! So my laptop been acting weird for a long time. Everytime I would connect the charger it would prompt me that there might be some issues with the AC and it's not compatible but I always ignored it. The laptop works pretty fine in daily basis but sometimes there's this problem that it will get stuck in a certain battery percentage. The remedy that worked for me was to take out the battery and put it back again. Then the charging would work fine. So some days ago, there was a power cut and I decided to use the laptop till it was 1%. I charged it back when the electricity came back but as usual there was no charging so I tried to take out the battery and do the same old ritual. Nothing happened. Long story short, I tried every troubleshooting method; also updated the drivers manually that I thought would help and even did the EC reset and nothing helped. While I watched your video, I tried to adjust my charger pin a little bit and voila! it starts to charge, damn. I don't know what is the main issue here. The laptop is a second hand one and it pretty much lasts an hour without AC power. I am thinking maybe the seller was having a different adapter and maybe it's something that causes the issue or it's the battery that needs to be replaced. PS: My model is Dell Latitude E7440 Btw loved your video, keep making helpful contents like these.

[@DarspyHeist]

Just bought a new battery only to realize it’s the port in the laptop. Seeing yours I now know the plastic or whatever should be there is gone.

[@SagarPatil-tt5bk]

thank you so much, this is really great video and has helped me a lot in understanding disassembly and components of the laptop. I have a Dell Inspiron 5559. Unfortunately, I am getting the same issue with the battery not charging. I replaced new battery, new AC adaptor as well and now replaced the DC jack, but still the problem is not solved. The white light turns on for a few seconds when I plug in the charger but then goes off. It says plugged in but does not charge. Any thoughts what should I do next to troubleshoot this issue. Would really appreciate your response. Thanks.

[@RedXXB]

This is serious man have you gotten any solution I have the same problem was thinking of replacing the battery and ac adapter but seeing you did the same I don't have hope on it working for me

[@pd1883]

Kudos. Superb presentation. Clear, concise and handled various common scenarios including mine. Great help. Thank you.

[@darkentryproductions]

Great video. I've had to replace my AC port 3 times in the past year now on my Dell XPS 15. It works every time I fix it for a couple months then the same problems arises again. I'm starting to wonder if the ports could be getting damaged from the hinge and opening and closing all the time. Or possibly it could be shorting out because of the metal hinge on the metal port? Sometimes my laptop gets extremely hot on the bottom side for no reason - even though the fan is on the bottom and not blocked. Any ideas what I can do?

[@lapfix]

For the issue being fixed everytime you replace the dc jack. There may be a use of too much force inserting the ac adapter to the dc jack. These are very easy to chip and damage. Dell is especially sensitve with chargers/dc jacks/batteries. Even a slight bend of the ac adapter will not allow some models to charge. For the laptop getting hot, leave on a flat service and probably replace the thermal paste. I show how to in other videos I have done before. Thanks for watching

[@darkentryproductions]

@@lapfix Thanks for the response and Ill watch your other videos. I also noticed some issues with my HDMI port which is right next to the ac adapter port on my computer. Often when connected to an external monitor the video cuts in and out. Type C port also has intermittent issues. Could the problems be related? My laptop is over 3 years old and used a lot for work. Maybe its just time for a new one.

[@kingcos19]

Thanks for this

[@icoborg]

i have changed the jack, but i'm still having the same problem...i guess i have to try a new ac adapter....but it has to be dell? or any compatible would work?

[@smashogre4766]

Super informative! I'm curious as to what those 4 tiny conductors embedded in that little plastic center piece in the AC port do. Are they how the power supply communicates its information to the laptop? Or is that the job of the center pin in the barrel connector of the power supply? Any thoughts? Huge thanks for making this video!

[@Maybe_XenOn]

Wow, thank you for that video, it literally was the charger inner lead , mine was missing completely

[@kingcos19]

Hey you have a great way of teaching - keep it up. My problem: ac adapter is not detectable, per the diagnostics report, so I imagine that’s a port problem? I just ordered some precision screwdrivers to see if I can release the residual power after dc’ing the battery, and if that doesn’t work I’ll try replacing the port. If that doesn’t work THEN I’ll send it into Dell and pay the ridiculous prices haha

[@Orange-Jumpsuit-Time]

It'll be cheaper to replace the Motherboard yourself than to send it to Dell and pay the ridiculous prices haha

[@wrathspath2202]

Hello, I’m looking to not replace but to resolder the back of the port. Do you have a wiring diagram or can you possibly show me there back of the connector with the sheathing off so I can see colors?

[@MusicMaster961]

Make sure the jack is plugged in all the way. It wasn’t a bad power supply or bad jack. The jack plug wasn’t pushed in all the way until is snaps in. That solved the issue battery is charging. However, thanks for the video anyway.

[@ScottyG117]

Hello i had the same situation, and i replaced the dc jack and the ac adapter, and the problem pressist, i tried already 3 chargers. Do you think it coud be a board issue? Do you know what voltages shoud be on the power adapter tip? Outside is groung and inside the plug has the pin and the outside layer i dont know what voltages shoud i be reading. Thanks

[@philosophysique5419]

Thaklnkyou for this I just bought a professionally refurbished dell laptop and out of the box it wouldnt charge. Just looked at the pin on the adapter and its bent all the way to the side. Ridiculous that they eould send it out like this when its supposed to be fully tested and working

[@0itsmohamed046]

Sir need your help When we talk about f12 when you turn on your laptop, the ac adapter giving me numbers and watt or something and the battrey state giving me idal, is that mean that my charger is need to be changed? And next time i pressed f2 and the ac adapter was unkown and the battrey health is normal what is all this about and means? And thing that i did not understand is that i've been using this charger for like a long while and it was working very well, but suddenly now stoped and to be honest i did not check those [ ( idal & unkown - info) lately ] until now, so i really can't tell if the issue because of those info or something else and oh by the way the charger that i have now still charging but i have to let it plugged in for a while and then it's start charge

[@lapfix]

You should always see the AC Adapter wattage. Idle either means it is not charging or it is at 100% full

[@JubeeHS13]

going to try this hopefully this solves my issue. so far i had to replace the battery, and the hard drive. my daughter had done a number on this thing . I have the DELL 7506. found the replacement part on amazon fingers crossed.

[@EliseoRodriguez-es9gj]

@lapfix, if the dc jack charger is the problem, do you think using a usn c charger could fix the issue ?

[@lapfix]

If it has a DC Jack, the USB-C Port may not be for charging (as the are all rated differently) I would make sure your specific laptop allows for USB-C Charging as it may only be a data line for usb/display

Hey . This is the exact same problem I am facing right now . Inspiron 15 , 5000 series . The battery was just replaced 6 months ago , and the old one lasted for 4 years . The problem just happend suddenly 3 days ago . Yes : the new battery is an orignal , same model as the previous one , spent a whole week looking in my city's stores to make sure I am buying the same battery , and not a copy cat. My local vendor allowed me to use the AC adapters he has for free , but it still didnt charge . I figured the problem was with the DC port , and got it changed . It still won't charge . Windows and BIOS both just say "plugged in" , but in Dell Power manager it says "plugged in , not charging" . How likely is it the problem is motherboard related ? , and If so : is there hope it can be fixed , like a component just needing to be replaced , or is it time to move on and get a whole new laptop ? . Thanks . Edit : I belived it was software related initially . Re-installed drivers , edited the power plan +Dell Power Manager etc : all that failed too .
