Adapter LED Light blinking

[Godiboat]

I Just bought Hp Pavilion 15 Cs0053cl and after setting it up, I realised the power LED light is always blinking whether the AC Adapter is plugged in or not.

Is it a malfunction or thats how it was manufactured by HP.

@Godiboat,

Thank you for posting your query on HP Support Community,

Most likely cause for blinking is that the laptop is turned on and in standby or similar. Sometimes it means that it's charging the battery. Sometimes blinking lights might even indicate a hardware failure (for instance, a failed battery, or damaged motherboard, or some other issue).

Let's start off by performing a Hard reset on the notebook: 

Before power resetting your computer, do the following:

1. Disconnect or remove all peripheral devices. Start up the laptop and test the computer by itself, and then reconnect one peripheral device at a time.

2. Turn over the computer and look for a battery compartment door.

   • If there is a battery compartment, use the steps in Reset a laptop with a removable battery.

   • If there is no battery compartment, use the steps in Reset a laptop with a sealed or non-removable battery.

 I recommend to restore the BIOS defaults.You could restore the BIOS with this document selecting the reloading the BIOS default settings. That way it will look at the Hardware installed on the Notebook.

Once done, restart the computer and check.
