HELP! Charger Plugged In But Laptop Not Charging

My laptop suddenly turned off by itself, so I was assuming the battery was empty. But when I plugged the charger in, The LED light for the 'charging' did not turn on. I tried turning on the laptop in 2 ways: one short press & one long press of the power button, but it won't turn on.

I've been trying to charge the laptop for the past hour, and I can notice that warmth on the surface of the charger and even the laptop.

Do you have any idea how to fix it or why this is happening?

 

Welcome to the laptop forums site


It could be a overheating problem and not a battery problem.

A laptop will turn itself off if it overheats, you have indicated that
the laptop seems to be a little hot.

See if the vents are not blocked with dust and fluff, you can purchase
a can of compressed air this will clear out the laptop including the
fan.
