If only the power green light is blinking, you could try a printer reset that may correct the problem.
1. With the printer on, disconnect the plug from the electrical outlet.
2. Wait at least 3 minutes
3. Plug back into the outlet.
You have shorted out transistors in the backlight inverter circuits. Most common failures in the LCD monitors are bad capacitors (bulging top/seal or leaking) in the power supply, blown fuses, failed inverter circuits (blown fuse, shorted transistors, shorted/open transformers), bad lamps (poor solder connections or worn out lamps). You will need to open it up and inspect the inside, see example of failed DELL monitors to get some ideas what to look for: http://s807.photobucket.com/home/budm/allalbums Post back what you see inside so we can guide you further and it will help out other people in the future also. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor_plague http://www.badcaps.net
It sounds like the battery is not charging. How old is the battery? if its 2 to 3 years old you may want to replace it. You can usually find them on ebay.
The first thing I would try is to get a new power adaptor. You can find a OEM on ebay probably for about $20. Just type in your model number on the search section on ebays homepage.
Hello,
I recommend purchasing a new Dell Inspiron battery.
The code 4 blinking orange or amber and one green, means a defective battery. Thank You,Raphael
It’s either the plug on the AC adaptor (might have a broken wire) or the laptop’s input jack that the adaptor plugs into. The input power jack is soldered onto the motherboard. Could also be a problem with the charging circuit on the motherboard (would need to replace motherboard to fix). Your responses are intended to improve the level of service provided. Please show your appreciation by rating your experience. Thank You.
switch off - disconnect ac adaptor - wait 3 seconds - connect ac adaptor - repeat about 20 times.
Is charge light blinking when you connect ac adaptor?
Try reseating battery.
If battery is old (over 2 years) or heavily used then it may need replacing. They only last for 250-500 complete discharges.
If it's blinking 9 times then it's likely telling you one or more of the RAM sticks are in need of replacement.
To check these, remove the laptops power cord and battery, then locate and remove, the cover for the RAM.
Remove one chip at a time and try booting the laptop.
