Hi,
I have recently bought a new Thinkpad AC ADAPTER and a new 12 cell battery to
my "Thinkpad T60 1953" notebook.
After i received them I pluged both new devices into the notebook but battery
cant get charged!!...
Whenever i plug the new ac adapter to the notebook when is not turned on the
lighst start blinking like: 1. orange battery and green litle plug lights
appear, after a second shuts and apear green batery and green litle plug and
after a second just apears the litle green plug lightened, this cycle continues
until i take the plug of adapter from the wall socket.
ehn I turn on the notebook with the ac adapter there is always a beeping going
on like the notebook is switching on and off intermitently with some seconds
between the beeps. Here first theres a orange light with a green light when the
notebook is switched on but after a second appears a green battery light then
lighs go off and start all again. its very noisy.
I made two litle videos on cell phone i order for someone see whats happening
when the notebook is turned off with ac adapter plugged and when is turned on
with acadapter plugged:
AC ADAPTER PLUGGED WITH BATTERY & NOTEBOOK OFF:

AC ADAPTER PLUGGED WITH BATTERY & NOTEBOOK ON:
mediafire.com/?a12fxsll8nhcu32
I dont have the original lenovo software but windows 7 so i dont have
maintanance battery check software but the battery is new bought on eBay and
carger new as weel bought on eBay as well.
The new ac adapter i bought details are:
P/N: 92p1108 - FRU: 92P1108 PA 1900-081 / output: 20V 4.5A 90W.
My old ac adapter details:
P/N: 92P1158 - FRU: 92P1157 PA-1650-161 / output: 20V - 3.25A.
The Battery details are: 12 Cell Battery IBM/LENOVO Thinkpad T60 40Y6795 40Y6799
The back of my thinkpad says: ... output 20V-3,25A.
I have bought the battery because I had one that came with the notebbok when i
bought it. It was everthing ok then the AC adapter start giving problems, i
mean it would go off and on, probably a cable issue or someother kind of
problem. Then one day the battery start not working at all and there was always
a blinking battery icon orange all the time. I went to internet to know mor
info about this and discover that i need to replace the battery.
I bought then a 12 cell battery that last long and because i sawmany web pages
that the T60 adapter was the 90W i bought one of those but apparently it does
not work... but also the 65W does not work as well. I try yesterday toi plug
the 65W again and it sowed the same simptoms as the 90W one.
For reference my previous cell battery was FRU 42T4504 (10.8V-5.2AH) and the 12
cell new battery is FRU 92P1133 (10400mAH-112Wh).
Yesterday i went to a elecrical shop and they kind said that the 20V jack neds
to have 3 polarity and the one i had just 2, it seems the center pin didnt have
polarity...
Thats what happened...
When attached the 12 cell battery on it and pluged the ac adapter the two
lights orange and green stayed stable unlike the other two ac adapters i used
before. When i turned on the notebook it started normaly without beeps and
windows open fine but when i opened the battery maintenance program the
notebook frezzed but i could read "battery connected but not charging".
Does this helps in a way in determining nthe problem here?
Is the battery faulty? ac adapter faulty, or do you beleive still in a
innternal pc problem?
When i unplug the ac adapter the computer shuts completely. Perhaps theres no
charge on the battery but again the system froze as soon windows started up
even without clicking on any program shortcut... Maybe the machine is not
accepting the battery.. it works well without the battery.
One other new thing i noticed now is when battery and charger are pluged there
are both orange and green lights on but the orange binks second by second. On
my other old battery this blinking orange is much faster. Does this means
anything to you??
Somhow i tryed to switch on the notebook just with the battery and it starts
but shuts after a second or two because theres no charge on the battery.
Hope to receive an help on this.
Boto
