Battery Failure

Hello,

Can anyone help how to fix this battery problem?  

"Your battery has experienced permanent failure and needs to be replaced" It is not charging currently and red light is keep blinking.

I have also updated BIOS and other drivers to latest versions from dell website, but nothing fixed it's same.

Waiting for the response!

Thanks

Given that this system is somewhere around 3-3.5 years old, the battery has likely expired of old age.  You'll need to purchase a new battery for it.

The design life of a lithium ion/polymer battery is 300-500 charge cycles or 18-24 months, whichever comes first - it's completely normal to have to replace a battery that's over two years old.

Proceed as per the message - the battery has failed and will need to be replaced.  If you need a part recommendation, we'll need to know the system model you have.

Not true at all these laptops contain an 18 650 battery four of them to be exact I separated mine charge them all individually I replaced them  and still having the same problemit's possible there's a circuit board failure but it's definitely not the battery itself
