I have tested the power lead and it is delivering about 20V to the laptop. But the battery is flat, not taking a charge and the LED power light is always off. I have tried with the battery out.
 
Take out the battery and clean the contacts on it and inside the laptop. Power up the laptop with the charger lead only ... once it starts up plug the battery in and leave it to charge. If It doesn't charge then it is probably a dead battery, since the charger is supplying power.
