Diagnosing Laptop Battery Quick Tips



  • If you have dropped your laptop and now it will not power up at all, take the battery out, unplug the power, press the power on button. Then replace the battery and try again.
  • Always check your power adapter cord for kinks and damage.
  • Make sure you use the right Laptop charge adapter as this can ruin your laptop battery. I have done this myself. I have even rewired adapters to use to charge laptop batteries but they never work as good as the originals.
  • Fully drain your laptop battery and then fully charge it up again. Then test it out.
  • Check the connection between the adapter and the laptop. Make sure it is connected correctly.
  • Borrow a compatible adapter from your friend if you can and try that with your laptop. Then you will know if your adapter is faulty or not.
  • Sometimes your BIOS shows the adapter as an “unknown device” and this can cause charging problems. In this case it is probably best to update your BIOS.
  • If you have checked the adapter, DC connection, the battery placement, then try getting a replacement battery to finally see if that solves your problem. You can grab a replacement battery from Amazon or ebay pretty cheap.
  • If you have a laptop battery but always use the power adapter, best thing is to remove the battery to preserve its life.
