Answer» Hello
Okay ive got a little problem with my battery it seems. "Consider replacing your battery." I think i know how this happened. One day i was just doing my normal things on my computer, and i heard strangest sound. It was my laptop saying that the CHARGER was not in correctly. This happened for around a week or so, Until i saw sparks flying out of the laptop charger "port" Or whatever you call it. Whatever it was, It came out of my computer. At the time, i thought it was the charger. I went to go BUY a pretty expensive charger and after 2 days, The same thing happened. It started to constantly make a beeping sound (Means that the charger was being taken out and put back in). While i was trying to adjust it back in the charger "port", I once again saw sparks. I didnt really care back then, But now my battery is saying 98% available (Plugged in, Not charging) Consider replacing your battery.
Should i just stop worrying and buy a battery? Or MIGHT there be a bigger problem?
Thanks.
EDIT: Now it says fully charged 100%. Its the battery, right? Because my charger seems to be doing fineSounds like the charger port on the laptop to me, may have also damaged your battery. I'd take it to a local REPAIR shop and ask them to have a look, they'll at least be able to tell you if the port is the issue.The sparks indicate a short circuit. The short could be in the jack, on the motherboard, or on a motherboard peripheral. If you're not a tinkerer, then yes you'll have to bring it to a tech. If you can attach an ohm meter to the positive pin on the jack, and the negative lead to any ground POINT, and your reading is less than a few ohms, then you've got a short.
