The touchpad on my Aspire A515-51G stopped working one day and so after I've opened the laptop up and reconnected the touchpad cable it started working again, but then the battery started having problems.
I did have to remove the battery to reconnect the touchpad cable, and now I have to have the power plugged in at all times or else the laptop would shut off instantly and I won't be able to turn it on until I plug in the AC again.
I've installed multiple battery information apps and they all pretty much show the same results, same model number, capacity, ware and charge which was also shows as 100% on the apps.
What I've tried:
-Resetting bios
-Updating bios
-Resetting EC switch
-Uninstalling the battery drivers through device manager
-Running the windows troubleshooter
-installing chipset and serial io drivers
-reconnecting every cable instide the laptop
I don't think the power adapter or something is the cause here because everything was working fine before I opened up the laptop, I'm not inexperienced with working around electronics and I'm fairly sure I didn't break anything, I just removed the battery and reconnected the touchpad cable.
