    I cannot confirm this from the community, but it may be that the internal connector of the computer is affected and the power supply connector is not making good contact, I don't know, you would have to try with another charger.
    You would also have to measure the voltage output of the power supply and check that it is not the problem.

    Thanks, greetings.

    Hi @Haveaproblemdave please indicate the exact model of the equipment so that we can see the LED message.
    It is normal that after a while it shows 100%, it is the information that it had when it was turned off, but once it is turned on it will take the updated value again.
    What I don't understand is what you are saying, does it mean that the power supply after suffering a crash, when connecting it to the equipment it does not charge and shows that LED message?

    Greetings.

    Was the impact on the connector part of the equipment?
