Question Laptop not charging ?

[brandhan54]

I have a Dell XPS L502X and the battery won't charge. I suspect it is a motherboard problem now.

I have the exact same 130W power lead, from a Dell Latitude E6230. While both leads will charge the battery inside the Latitude, neither of them will charge the battery inside the XPS.

I have tried different batteries inside the XPS, and none will charge.

I have replaced the power jack inside the XPS, which didn't help.

The only thing I can think of doing is testing the battery connectors on the motherboard. Can anyone tell me how to do that?

Or is there something else that I should be testing?

the XPS needs 130W, the E6230 only 65Watt. Are you sure that you have a 130W from the E6230?
