tried ew adapter lead in my laptop ispiron 1300,not charging the battery but also switches of sometimes when i move it and it tends to get hot.this makes me think it is the connection inside how do i remedy this.
Hi benno565, it's not shorting it's too loose from plugging & unplugging, hence your notebook is not getting a steady charge. You can bend the two prongs (every so slightly apart from each other), (carefully), this will give you a better connection or you can just replace the AC adapter. Your battery seems unable to hold a charge, that defenitly needs replaced.
