Inspiron 7560 random shutdowns

I bought a new Inspiron 7560 about a week ago. The laptop shuts down automatically when on AC power ( works fine on battery). I initially thought it was due to flea power so I drained the flea power but still the same issue. Sometimes it shuts down within a few minutes sometimes works properly for days. I checked the bios power logs. There is a event - `Shutdown - AHCI power off`. Not sure what's going on?

    Hi xadahiya,

    Thanks for posting.

    Have you tried a different power supply?  If you purchased directly from Dell, you may need to call tech support and troubleshoot with them.

    Hi Robert,

    Thanks for the reply but I found the problem. It was the Arch kernel causing the problems. I don't know due to some reason Arch Linux latest kernel keeps on crashing with Inspiron 7560. I changed my OS now everything is working fine.

    Thanks anyways ')
