Hi. Your battery is probably drained and, without a good connection, will not recharge. If you are comfortable taking the machine apart, look at the solder joints at the power input plug, look at the fit between the jack and plug, look at any breaks in the wiring near the plug, etc. Sometimes the problem will jump out at you.
