Good afternoon,

Been working on a Dell Latitude E5410 which is bringing me problem after problem.
I now seem to have all my previous issues sorted but still one major issue remains - the battery will not charge.

The battery light is constantly flashing orange. The laptop is recognizing there is a battery attached but will not charge it.

Things I have tried:

removing the battery unplugging the AC adapter and holding power button down for 30 seconds before putting the battery back in and trying to see if it charges then. No luck

Different AC adapter. still powers the laptop but will not charge the battery

Reset the BIOS to default settings

Physically taken the laptop apart to check the physical connection was not damaged.

uninstalling the battery from device manager and reinstalling.

Probably a few other things as well but I can't think of other stuff I have tried off the top of my head.

Ideally I would like to try a different battery to see if that charges which will of course confirm my current battery is dead but I do not have a spare one to try.

Anyone else got any ideas I can try?
