Second battery does not charge (5175)
Okay, I also try in english:
On my 5175, the (second) battery in the keyboard dock (K12M) does not charge, even if I put the power adaptor directly into the keydock. Windows says either battery 2 not attached or battery 2: 0%... Battery (1MCXM) is present, if I open the dock.
Is there any chance of resetting the battery?!?
No Events found!

How old is the battery, maybe the battery is close to dying?

Hi, thanks for reply,
it's a second-hand, so I don't know how old exactly. A dead battery is possible, of course – but how can I check?
I just recognized: if I plug the charger directly to the dock, a red LED ist blinking continously; but I don't have any clue what this means (possibly something bad, but due to lack of documentation maybe something like "still charging")...

Hi , search the dock model and you will probably find the service manual.

Unfortunately,
according to the manual, there are only 2 states of the LED: white for loading and off for loaded – there's no blinking...
