DC Power Jack Harness
The DC input jack on the XPS 15 is a modular plug-in harness. Frequent plugging/unplugging causes the internal sensing pin contact to fatigue or the housing to loosen, preventing the 'ID' signal from reaching the motherboard. Replacing this assembly restores the physical connection required for the BIOS to authenticate the power adapter.

Dell 130W AC Power Adapter
The center pin in the Dell barrel-style charger carries the identification signal. If this pin is bent, recessed, or the internal wire is frayed, the system will not charge the battery as a safety precaution. Testing with a known-good 130W OEM adapter is a standard diagnostic step.

Main Motherboard Assembly
If the DC jack and adapter are functional, the failure lies in the charging circuit (MOSFETs or the charging IC) on the motherboard. Research indicates that power fluctuations can damage the sense circuit on the XPS 15 board, necessitating a full board replacement if granular component repair is not feasible.
