Vostro 1520 power issues.

Hi All.

I am having a very strange problem when charging my Vostro 1520. If the laptop is powered off and I plug it in everything is fine, I can turn the laptop on and it continues to charge and the power meter shows it being plugged in. If I then unplug it for a few seconds and turn it back on, the LED on the power pack (dell original) comes on and slowly goes off and the laptop shows as still running on battery. I have tried another dell power pack so I know the problem isnt with that, I have ran the full diagnostic and nothing was flagged there either.

Is there anything I can do to try to get this charging properly?

 

Many thanks.
