Check the wires
Using the laptop charger
- Check that the charger is firmly plugged into the wall/power strip and the computer
- Many chargers are 2 pieces with a break in the middle. Make sure these are firmly connected.
- If plugging into a power strip, make sure the power strip is plugged in and turned on.
Using a docking station
- Check that the docking station is plugged in.
- Dell docking stations have a round power connector that connects to the dock and should also plug into the wall.
- The power adapter for the TrippLite docks should go between the wall and the port labeled PD Charge
Reboot your laptop
- If all the wires are plugged in correctly and it still will not charge, reboot the laptop and check if it is charging.
