Question:”My laptop AC adapter is not working and is emitting a high pitched beep…any ideas about what’s wrong?

Last night I heard some beeping noises in my room, didnt pay much attention to it. Later on today, my Dell AC adapter will not work. The blue light isnt shining while its plugged up as it usually would do.

The beeping is coming from the vgp-bps9/s battery pack on the AC adapter. Its that block looking thing that is attached to the power cord (as you can tell i am not the most technical person). I looked at some online forums and i heard ideas ranging from open fuses to dead power cords.

The important thing is that sometimes it does work and sometimes it doesn’t. However this time it is not going back on and i am running low on sony vgp-bps9/b battery!”

Solution:”

Alright, first and foremost, your world is NOT going to end if your laptop AC adaptor is not functioning the First and foremost, when you are facing a laptop AC adapter that is NOT working, you should verify if the AC adaptor brick is receiving any power. Here’s how to do it: you need to shutdown your laptop computer and unplug the adapter from the system and from the power socket. Before, you proceed to the next step, give your laptop and the AC adaptor some cooling down period – about 5 seconds or so would be enough. After that, plug the adapter straight to the wall socket, bypass the surge protectors, UPS units, extension cords, and the like. If the laptop AC adapter works, its LED should produce a consistent green light. HOWEVER, if you don’t get that, you could try the laptop AC adapter on another outlet or you could check if the outlet works properly by plugging in a lamp or any sort of electric device.

If you have confirmed that the dell pa-12 adaptor is defective, The general consensus is that the easiest and safest method is to buy a new laptop ac adapter online as soon as possible – you don’t know when it will work and when it won’t!.I would recommend buying laptop ac adapter from laptopbatteryadapters.com because they offer lifetime warranty and free shipping to all ac adapters at a good price. This way, if something like this happens again, you can return it and get a new one. On the other hand, if it gives out the green light and seems to be working just fine, you should check your laptop for bad connections.

Here’s how to do it: you should take a closer look at the power socket and make sure that it is NOT bent or distorted, doesn’t have any missing parts or pushed in pins. You could plug in the device’s connector straight to your computer. Again, you should bypass surge connectors and protectors, extension cords, and everything in between. Make sure that the dell pa-10 adaptor fits perfectly and tightly into your laptop’s power socket. Here is another tip – if you can access a laptop (which is of the same model and manufactured year as yours), you could try using your adaptor on it. On the other hand, you could also try its adapter on your computer. If all else fails and you have confirmed that its your laptop AC adaptor that is problematic or mulfunctioning, it is time to proceed to step three.

Here’s how to deal with it – you should check if your computer is still under warranty. If your computer is still under warranty and the AC adapter does not respond to troubleshooting, contact your laptop’s manufacturer for replacement or repair. # being sure to include the following information:

Company name (if applicable):

Owners Full name:

System service tag:

Physical address (No PO boxes, include city, state and zip code):

On the other hand, if your laptop is quite old and is no longer under warranty, purchasing a new and compatible toshiba AC adaptor is the fastest and easiest way out.”
