Compaq Presario CQ60 Charging Problem

Question:" It is a Compaq Presario CQ60 Laptop by HP. I don't have any cash I can put into fixing it and the battery is dead, but we have the charger and everything it needs to function. I was just wondering if anybody knew of an easy, reliable way to get it to charge without getting work done on it. "
Answer:"The charger can stop working for two main reasons. The first one is that the charger may be old and may have broken down due to a mechanical error and the other reason is that your Dc socket may not be working meaning charge cannot reach your laptop.
Try remove the battery and compaq battery charger/ac adapter/power cord from your Compaq Presario CQ60 laptop, press and hold the power button for 20 seconds to discharge any residual current inside the laptop. This clears your RAM and is like a hardware reset. Replace the battery and compaq presario cq62 adapter and turn your laptop on.

If the problem remain, check if its your laptop power cord or power source problem. Insufficient power might cause error messages that are misleading. Take the battery out and power on your Compaq Presario CQ60 laptop with the charger only. Make sure your laptop power jack and charger plug tip are securely connected. Did you notice the power jack loose? You can find laptop power jack on ebay. Fixing and soldering the power jack requires professional skill though. Also the charger green/blue LED should be constantly on without blinking. If not, replace the defective charger. laptop charger does not last forever,you can bue a new one from laptopadaptershop.com.au"
