Laptop not charging

[user_15]

I have the hp pavilion laptop and it's not charging.

I plug it in and the charging port makes a squeaking noise and then stops charging.

Hi @user_15,
 
Welcome to the HP Support Community!

Thanks for reaching out!

Sorry for the inconvenience caused don’t worry let me help you.

To better understand the issue, could you please provide a few more details?

• Does the squeaking noise come directly from the charging port or from the adapter itself?
• Have you tried using a different power outlet or a different charger (if available)?
• Does the laptop battery indicator show that it’s charging at all, even briefly?

Troubleshooting steps you can try:

1. Check the charger and cable
   • Inspect the adapter and cable for any visible damage, fraying, or bent connectors.
   • If possible, test with another compatible HP charger to rule out adapter issues.
2. Power reset
   • Shut down the laptop.
   • Disconnect the charger 
   • Hold down the power button for 15–20 seconds to discharge residual power.
   •  reconnect the charger, and try powering on again.
3. Inspect the charging port
   • Look for dust, debris, or looseness in the port.
   • If the port feels loose or continues to make noise, it may indicate a hardware issue.
4. Battery health check

• If your Pavilion model supports HP Support Assistant, run a battery diagnostic to see if the battery itself is failing.

I hope this helps.
