Although on a lead, instead of being soldered in, they do occasionally have a fault.

I can only otherwise suggest that you try removing the battery, and then plug in adaptor, and see if it will work.

If so, then shut down, and replace the battery and see if it will charge.

I have had a few of these to rebuild, and if that does not work, I think you will need someone to check the motherboard, as I gather thay it can be small transisters on the motherboard causing the problem/

Good luck
