Hey,
so I forgot to turn off my Laptop (HP Pavilion 15-eg0355ng) overnight and it completely discharged the battery. That happened before but I could just plug the AC adapter in, let it charge for a minute and then just turn it on normaly. This time that didn't work. when I connected the AC adapter the charge-indicator LED didn't turn red as usual, when I tried turning it on that same LED blinked white 3 times. I searched for that online and found that thats probably a really dead battery (makes sense, right). So I ordered a new battery and replaced the old one. The result of that was that the Laptop now turns back on but (stil) doesn't charge. I checked the AC adapter (one of those universal ones) and found that I had to do some fixing on that one for it to work properly. But that didn't solve my problem. I checked the AC adapter on another laptop and it works. So the AC adapter is fine. I measured the battery voltage which was good. I checked that I get charging voltage to the connector on the mainboard which was there.
I also tried putting the old battery back in after I fixed the AC adapter but that didn't charge neither.
I also ran the HP self diagnosis tool after I installed the new battery which told me the battery was fine but no AC adapter was connected (which I of course connected).
List of what happened:
-Laptop discharged
-replaced dead Battery with new one
-confirmed the new Battery works
-confirmed the AC adapter works
-confirmed I'm getting charging voltage to the Mainboard
-HP Tool says battery is good but AC adapter not connected
Now I dont really know what could be the fault here. Maybe its the charge port in the laptop (which I could easiely replace) but I dont really believe that since I'm getting voltage to the connector on the Mainboard and the charge indicator LED worked after I let the battery discharge.
Hope somebody has an idea what could be wrong.
