Dell 610 - battery will not charge and adapter goes "blink"

Dell Latitude 610

I have a problem with my Dell Latitude 610 not charging the battery. It runs well on battery till charge runs out. (I put a new charged battery from another computer and it will work) It looks like there is a problem between the power chord and the motherboard. Whenever I plug in the power cord, the green light goes off on the adapter. I can use the same adapter on another computer and it works (so rules out adapter problem) I am thinking it is the "power module" on the mother board. I have in my possession a Dell 600 motherboard and I am wondering if I can just swap them??

Yes, it does sound like a motherboard power circuit issue. The other board should fit, but I can't guarantee it. If it physically looks the same as far as ports, I'd give it a try. You can access the service manual on Dell's website.

Yo! i think you should try something.get a friend that uses your type of adapter, try charge it with that and see if it responds.if it doesn't charge, you will have to replace your battery which means its spoilt.

This is possibly an internal power Supply fault. take the battery out, plug in the adapter, IF the unit works now, you have A: A battery problem, or B: a charging circuit problem. If the unit still fails to work, the power supply in the PC has faulted. You need to get a "Quote: for a repair.

Dell latitude l400 mother board power problem
SOLUTION  # 2:
The  adapter can be plugged into the DELL the wrong way and it won't charge then. I've done this myself so check to see if the adapter plug that goes into the laptop has a grey battery icon on it. The icon goes on top when you plug it in. For different laptops the symbol may be different than what I mentioned.

Hey,

Test your charger, the battery light blinking and the computer not starting up indicates not enough power to start up or not pluged into ac power, check the power adapter or charger. I suspect the battery is fine.
