What Could Be Problem?
Note Book : Toshiba A75-S206, 3 years old.
Symptoms:
1. Can not turn on with Batteries and AC Power line turned ON. Battery does not get charged. Simply plugging the adapter does not charge. Either need to hold the pin at the back of computer or press against something or turn the laptop upside down.
2.Most of the time, even if the batteries are charging, after 10-20 minutes the computer get turned off automatically as the pin of the adapter and back of the computer is get heated excessively.
3.Sometime the battery charge light starts to blink after 10-15 minutes of charging on off mode of computer.
4.Can not run only on AC power, taking out batteries.
5.One friend said – it could be problem of plugging at back and only power plug can not be replaced. Need to replace motherboard for that. Costs $690
6.Other problem could be depleted Batteries. The battery and laptop itself is almost 3 years old. Battery Cost $150.
7.One friend said it could be connection problem-mostly loose soldering.
I do not have warranty on this. Do not want to send to repair center and spend big bucks. If it could be just batteries – I will replace batteries. But if changing batteries does not work then I will loose $150. I can buy new laptops from 700.
Any expert, share your experience, advice or solution. Thanks
