If you suspect a power problem, see the appropriate one of the following power supply checkouts: v "Checking the ac adapter" v "Checking operational charging" v "Checking the battery pack" on page 30 v "Checking the backup battery" on page 30 Checking the ac adapter You are here because the computer fails only when the ac adapter is used. v If the power-on indicator does not turn on, check the power cord of the ac adapter for correct continuity and installation. v If the computer does not charge during operation, go to "Checking operational charging" To check the ac adapter, do the following: 1. Unplug the ac adapter cable from the computer. 2. Measure the output voltage at the plug of the ac adapter cable. See the following figure: Pin Voltage (V dc) 1 +20 2 2 Ground (20V) 1 3. If the voltage is not correct, replace the ac adapter. 4. If the voltage is acceptable, do the following: v Replace the system board. v If the problem persists, go to "IdeaPad S9e, S10e, and S10" on page 45. Note: Noise from the ac adapter does not always indicate a defect. Checking operational charging To check whether the battery charges properly during operation, use a discharged battery pack or a battery pack that has less than 50% of the total power remaining when installed in the computer.
