Asus Chromebook Flip C302CA: Laptop will not charge, blinking lights

Thu, 06 Jul 2023 05:50:57 -0700

So this is probably my fault for not using the Chromebook in months, but whenever I do try and charge it to use, it will blink a reddish-orange light and refuse to turn on. I hold down the refresh button, power, escape key, any combination, and it turns either green then green-orange, or just blinks greenish-orange and back to the reddish-orange. Both results do not result in the laptop turning on.

The charging cords I use both work, as I use them for other devices, and there's no issues with the adapter or outlet that the cords are plugged into. I know that the machine is charging, it just doesn't seem to be keeping that charge. This started... a very long while ago, it's just now that I'm concerned.

I would provide pictures of the lights, but unfortunately my phone is broken beyond repair and I'm waiting on the trade-in.

I suspect there's something wrong with the battery, but I currently have no way of cracking it open and seeing what's wrong, if anything. From what I can see, everything works fine otherwise. This has been happening for a long while, and I'm at my wits end. Any ideas on what went wrong?

Asus Chromebook Flip C302CA: faulty charging and random restart; tried just about everything

Sun, 12 Jun 2022 06:54:24 -0700

My Asus Flip C302CA Chromebook was old enough that I decided to replace the battery when no other solution worked. That went successfully thanks to ifixit kit and instructions. I thought I had the problem solved, but now it's back. Here's what happens. I plug the charger cable in (I've used two different OEM charging cables/adapters and tried both charging ports multiple times). The amber light goes on solid, as it should. But, after a few minutes, it goes off. The unit has shut itself down, and it has not continued to charge. As I said, I've replaced the battery, hard-reset it a hundred times, removed browser extensions, tried different power outlets, tried a different charger cable/adapter (OEM), tried the charging ports on both sides of the unit. I also tried charging it ina better-ventilated spot to see if it was overheating. Nothing works. I'm about to the point of recycling it with a brand-new battery in it which would suck.
