Toshiba power charging problem

There are only three parts from the Toshiba laptop that could be wrong:
1. Power Supply/Charger
2. Damage battery.
3. Electrical input port.
First, troubleshoot the charger, you can try it with another Toshiba laptop of the same model, if it shows that is charging, then then troubleshoot the battery.
To TS the battery, just get a battery from a friend, or if you can go to a store where they sell batteries, take the laptop with you and let them know that you want to test it first.
If the battery is not the problem, then you have a faulty electrical input port.
I had a Toshiba Satellite, also, I'm I.T.

First I suggest to check fuses; keep in mind that the OBD-II port didn't work because the power wire in the connector corroded and didn't have a connection anymore. No power equals no OBD worked.


Hope this helps; also keep in mind that your feedback is important and I`ll appreciate your time and consideration if you leave some testimonial comment about this answer.

Thank you for using FixYa, have a nice day.

If set is new and only a month old have it repaired under warranty. If no light for power at all now I need to know the model number to give suggestions as to what is wrong.

If you still have warranty, take it back asp, they will have to repair or replace since this was manufacture defect, if that is not an option! Do a complete recovery on your operational system to factory setting.

It's possible to fix. First go to device manager and you should see something like "USB Root Hub". Double click to open it, go over to power management, and "Uncheck" "Allow this computer to turn off this device to save power". Do this for all that say USB Root Hub. Next go to "Power Options" then "Edit Plan Settings" (accessible through "choose when to put the computer to sleep") and select "Change Advanced Power Settings". Next, make sure you do this in all of your power settings, but scroll down to an icon called USB settings. Expand the selection, then expand the "USB selective suspend setting". Choose, both on battery and plugged in if you want, to Disable the selective suspend. Finish and apply. Also, to confirm, you know that the USB device (IPod) but be plugged into the eSATA port, correct? It doubles as a USB port and is the only one capable of charging.

remove ac supply and battery from the laptop.. and press power button for atleast 30 sec.. it reset the CMOS memory.. this is what toshiba technical support person told me to do when i called to them way back..

This person is a deadbeat who does not intend on paying for premium services, I suggest experts ignore him

In that case ,
Click on start and run
Type devmgmt.msc

Then uninstall all devices under universal serial bus controller.

Then need to click on any option in the list and scan for h/w changes.

This will install all devices back and your system will be able to recognize all devices now.

Hope this help.

Cheers!!!!!!!

in your laptop goto device manager. universal serial bus controller. go to appropriate port. Right click- properties - there you will c a power management tab. uncheck Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power. click ok.

Sounds like you have a problem with your power adapter, battery and or charge port ... I would suggest you let the unit "charge" overnight and try again.
