Dell XPS 13 9365 does not charge beyond 55%

Hi

My Dell XPS 13 9365 does not charge beyond 55%.

I have used Dell Command Power Manager to select all the different options and even changed the Custom one to 100% but it wont budge beyond 55%.

I know 55% is one of the default settings - but selecting any of the others does not seem to make any difference.

Running diagnostics does not show any errors.

Any suggestions?

This is a long shot, but after you changed your battery charging settings, did you disconnect and reconnect the AC adapter and/or completely shut down the system?

If for some reason changing power plan in Dell's app doesn't work try to alter those  settings in the BIOS.

Hi

I did that too - changing the BIOS had no effect either.

Hi

Yes, removed AC adapter and shut the system down - same problem.

Thanks for the suggestion.

How long have you had this laptop with this battery. Did it ever charge to 100%.

Is the one charger all you have?

It may be something with the system but battery or charger problems could also be involved.

Did you find a fix? Mine is doing the same thing. Dell replaced the battery and it's STILL doing the same thing. I can't figure out why they wouldn't have tested the **bleep** thing before sending it back but here I am.

Hello,

 

I also have same issue with my XPS 9365 not charging past 55 percent.  Just shows plugged in but not charging.  It was working fine just last week.  Also, I think the bottom of laptop feels significantly hotter then it did before this issue started.

Tried a different adapter that works fine on my other models, adjusting power settings,  unplugging and plugging back in, as well as installing a fresh install of Win10 Pro.  I even took off bottom base and unplugged battery and plugged back in after about a minute or so.

But still will not charge beyond 55%.   I read a post where it said that placing a date in the BIOS ownership field and not leaving it blank can solve the issue. However, I do not see that there is an ownership date field available in the Bios for this model.

 

I would greatly appreciate some help in getting this properly charging again.

Hi!

 

Did you get a chance to contact the regional team?

Did anyone find a solution to this issue. I see a lot of cases being reported that are about the same, but no solution in sight even after a year. I have an XPS 9300 with the same issue. A beautiful machine otherwise but this charging limit thing is killing it. I want my laptop to charge to 90+ % as I need the back up time for work.

Maybe so, but I still wanted to see if any of the people who reported the issue eventually found a solution.

It's the weekend. The issue is not that, the regional team may have an answer or not, but no solutions at all here.
