Re: Battery charging control

Hi,

Could be a bad charger or a faulty wire from the charger to the
computer. If there's a changing light on the computer that normally
comes on when the it is charging, wiggle the wire and see if that light
come one at all. The weakness is normally where it connects into the
computer.
