Okay. Trying to troubleshoot a chromebook that won't charge. I purchased a new battery, and doesn't seem to have fixed the problem unfortunately. No sign of charging with the original battery. Installing the new battery gave me a blinking orange light for a little while. This seems as though it might mean the battery was low, but that because it was blinking, it also means it was not charging. After a short while, the orange blinking stopped as well.
My thought is that the battery sent had a small charge left on it, but the chromebook wasn't charging, even with the new battery. Does that sound accurate?
So what is my next step? Do I spend more money on a new charger? The battery was about $60. Sounds like a new charger is about the same.
It also sounds like I should be able to run the chromebook without a battery? I don't have any luck doing this either. Either with the battery plugged in, or the battery not plugged in. Do I have that right?
Thanks for any support.
