I have a Satelitte l855-s5171. Was working and charging fine until the other day when the battery died and the charger stopped working. I have purchased a new charger but it won't recognize it. With the battery plugged in, if I hold the power button the battery light flashes. Without it plugged in it does nothing when I hold the button. The charger connection seems fine, not loose, no smells.
Hoping for some advice please!!
