Why won't my tablet charge?

Hi Barbara, The link below is a youtube video showing you how to fix your tablet....CHEERS..

How To fix any Android Phone Tablet that won turn on

That yellow triangle icon means the battery is completely depleted or perhaps has a faulty connection. Try charging it overnight with the correct charger. If the situation remains the same you need to either replace the battery or, if you're lucky, you can check/clean the battery connection. Keep in mind that some tablets don't make it easy to do that.

The fact the battery shows fully charged means nothing, the symptom is a defective battery.

Check the output of the charger to make sure its actually working, if it is most likely the battery connector inside the unit is bad, or the battery is bad.

When you have the charger plugged into the tablet and wall outlet does the triangle change to a lighting bolt if it doesn't change try a different changer either the charger or charging port or charging cable might be bad

I'm guessing(bad charger?) Try another charger.

you might have a deffective battery, which is a very common problem to tabs... especially if your using a generic tablet....

I had this same thing. The Batter image had a red line on the right side and the yellow triangle had an explanation point in the middle.

I searched the net and found a few solutions.

1. Hold the power button down for 30 seconds.

2. Hold the power button down and the volume down button at the same time for 30 seconds.

3. Just let it charge and over night and it should go back to normal.

I did all 3, in the order I wrote them. While in step 3, after about 5 minutes I pressed the power button and it showed that it was charging normal.

Hope this helps.

Ifthe laptop battery is more than 3 - 4 years old then the battery could be wornout. Rechargeable batteries have a finite number of charge and discharge cyclesand will lose their charge capacity over time, i.e. won't charge to 100% andgradually the charge reduces until the battery won't charge up atall. ORThe battery shows a 100% charge but when the adapter is disconnected thebattery drops off to zero capacity in a very short time. Ifthe battery drops to an unacceptable charge level then the battery needs to bereplaced.
