battery will not charge, the charger works fine

“My tablet is only one year old, I bought it at Wal-Mart, it was playing fine then it stated re charge, it was late at night so I just turned the tablet off, I tried to recharge it in the morning, by the afternoon I checked to see if was charged, it wasn’t, I reconnected the tablet to the charger again, checked that night, again nothing, I used the charger for another tablet it worked fine " okey now we’r talking so first of all you can check the USB port on your tablet becouse you said “Wal-Mart” it makes me kinda suspicious (i don’t think your tablet is a piece of $@$* but hey it’s suspicious) if you have some lens like 30x or 50x(or 10x and good eyesight …mine is really bad (at 18y old…..)) or microscope or anything look at your USB port if there is some crap inside or anything suspicious try to take it out (with non-conductive thingy (don’t use metal (or be extreamly carefull!))) if it dosen’t still work and there is nothing inside (or something that makes you think…) what you can do is to open up your tablet and check the port again (if it wiggles or so….) you can also check the baterry itself and try to reconnect it and check the cables….(i don’t think there is an issue..) also you can try to wiggle the USB lead in your tablet and it may start charge (just wiggle it arround and check whatever it makes diffrence there could be some of the component’s on the PCB blown or damaged (just check it few times ) i have heard that sometimes components blow and the line from charging circuit to battery is open (no connection) but that’s on iphones…(could be on your tablet…) have you tryed to google ? if anything on the PCB is blown or damaged you will need to do Level 3 repair… as i said check for damages and try to wiggle the cable arround if you have warranty take it back to the store again, it’s easy also hit thanks if i helped

Everyone if your RCA tablet Percent is stuck for example 40% or 1% etc for hours. Press the reset button if that doesn’t work, uninstall any apps related to the battery like a battery saver and all VPN apps then press the reset button again hopes this fix this problem for some of you. to prevent form this happening don’t download a battery saver, i don’t know with VPN don’t charge it at the night will damage battery don’t charge and use it at the same time Also the outlet that you connected might be the problem might be too much power or a really high voltage that it messed up the tablet counter or your tablet in general hope this helps anyone Posted 11/14/2017 RAC Tablet Viking II

I was having an issue where even when plugging in my tablet using a cell phone charger it wouldnt take charge, but the blue LED would come on to indicate it was getting power. Turns out the issue is the charger I was using wasn’t providing sufficient power. I looked on the tablet and saw it required a charger that provides 5 volts at between 1.5 and 2.0 amps; the charger I was using was only providing 5 volts and 1.2 amps. When I plugged in with a charger providing 1.6 amps it immediately displayed the battery charging icon on the screen and allowed me to power the tablet on like normal.

Change the battery. I did that to my RCA Galileo Pro and it’s working like it should. Mine would not charge. When I opened the back, the battery was bulging. My tablet is almost 2 years since my brother bought it for me.

I am trying to remember. I have the placed saved on my laptop. Let me look and I will be back with the answer.
