Two possible causes for flashing Amber battery light.
1) Your battery won't charge and needs to be replaced.
2) Your charging circuit for the battery is defective and then your motherboard of laptop will need to be replaced.

My Dell Latitude D620 laptop will not boot up unless I hold the power button down. The computer will run fine if I keep holding the power button down. It will also keep running if I hold down any key. As...

Hello.

The most common reasons for power issues are the battery, power jack and power adapter/cord.

Power off and remove the battery. If the laptop powers on with just the adapter connected, your battery is faulty.

If you move/wiggle the power adapter at the point where it connects to the laptop, and the power goes off and on, the power jack is the problem.

The power jack is inside the laptop and either needs soldering or replacement. If a power jack problem, it should be addressed by someone knowledgeable.

If no change, the power adapter is probably faulty and needs replacement.

Hope this helps.

My D620 starts to boot up then shuts down suddenly

could it be that your battery is no longer holding a charge?
try powering it up with the power pack attached (and ensure the light on the power pack is indeed lit) - it also could be that the laptop is not being charged by the power pack.

Continuous alternating one green and three flashing red battery

note.gif NOTE: Battery operating time (the time the battery can hold a charge) decreases over time. Depending on how often the battery is used and the conditions under which it is used, you may need to purchase a new battery during the life of your computer. Check the battery status light — If the battery status light flashes orange or is a steady orange the battery charge is low or depleted. Connect the computer to an electrical outlet.
If the battery status light flashes green and orange, the battery is too hot to charge. Shut down the computer, disconnect the computer from the electrical outlet, and then let the battery and computer cool to room temperature.
If the battery status light rapidly flashes orange, the battery may be defective. Contact Dell _I found this on : http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/latd820/en/ug/index.htm Hope this helps and good luck. if i "fixed ya" please rate me. thanks-jmattes

Battery

The flashing light is telling you that your battery is not holding a charge. The fact that it goes dead when you unplug it tells me that the power adapter is working properly and the battery is the suspect. If your computer is under warranty, contact Dell for a replacement battery. If not, you'll need to purchase a new battery.

Hope this helps.
