Follow these steps in troubleshooting battery losing charge quickly or battery not charging issues:
1. Turn off system.
2. Remove battery and try powering system using AC Adapter only.
Does it power on?
- If yes, try another battery (if available).
- If no, it needs to be sent it for repair for possible AC Connector/ systemboard issue. Contact Fujitsu Service Desk at 1-800-8FUJITSU (1-800-838-5487)
Does it charge?
- If yes, let the battery charge fully and the issue may have been resolved by reseating the battery.
- If no, try another AC Adapter (if available).
- If yes, the issue has been resolved.
- If no, try another AC Adapter and if it powers on, AC Adapter needs to be replaced.
Try another battery or try using another notebook of same model and see if it still loses charge quickly.
- If yes, the notebook needs battery replacement. Contact Fujitsu Service Desk at 1-800-8FUJITSU (1-800-838-5487) if system is still under warranty.
- If no, the system likely needs to be repaired for a possible DC-In port / systemboard issue. Again Contact Fujitsu Service Desk at 1-800-8FUJITSU (1-800-838-5487) if system is still under warranty.
