Summary of the poroblem:
Facts:
1) The laptop works perfectly fine using the battery.
2) The battery dose not charge using the AC adapter that came with the laptop.
3) The battery dose not charge when the laptop is turned on or off.
4) No chaging light turns on when pluged into AC.
5) When the battery is pluged into the battery slot on the laptop, the white AC power led on the dc jack turns off.
6)The very second I remove the battery from the computer, the white AC power led on the dc jack turns back on!
7) With the battery removed and the AC power supply pluged into the laptop, the laptop won't turn on, and the white AC power led on the dc jack remains on.
Tests done:
1) Used another adapter with the laptop, but had the same problem.
2) Used different battery, but had the same problem.
Interesting fact:
When the battery is completly drained out, the white AC power led on the dc jack turns on, but I still cannot turn on the laptop on AC power supply.
Note:
I Have a multimeter that I want to use to test the power supply and charging circuit on the motherboard, but I don't have a schamatics of the mother board, so I am stuck.
Any suggestions from the HP community would be appriciated. Thanks.

Answer 1

The laptop has a modular DC jack that plugs into the motherboard with a cable and does not require soldering. The first thing to try is a replacement of that jack. Here is the Service Manual:
