I have the same model with same issue. Both ports won’t light up and can’t even turn on. Is there a way just to change the charging port?

I ended up replacing the motherboard as I didn't trust my abilities in soldering on a board. Found one on ebay for around $150 I think. This was going to be for my kid at school so didn't want to buy new with the inflated prices pre-school year. Fairly easy install with the right tools. Got it all done and then the school came out a week before start and said outside computers not allowed as they had enough to go 1 to 1 for the year. FML...

If you wife’s Chromebook is the same model try swopping batteries.

If her battery charges fine in your laptop and your’s doesn’t charge in her’s then you know that you need a new battery.

Its not the same battery. Are there other indicators that would help diagnose a non-functional battery? On mine the light wont even turn on when plugging it into the charger. Does that lean to a bad battery or a bad motherboard?

Hi @Sean Goodman

Just disconnect the battery and try to run Chromebookl with just the charger plugged in. If all is well then the battery is probably defective and I would guess shorting out the system.

It could be something else but let's just try this to start.

I have the same problem, but disconnecting the battery and plugging it in does not allow the computer to run. What's the next step?

@Peter Anderson

What is the make and model number of the laptop?

Do you get any indications on the laptop when a charger is connected?

If not maybe check if the DC-In jack is OK.
