Recently, my m14x will not operate without being plugged in (it is less than 6 months old).
When I try to turn it on without plugging in, nothing happens. If I plug it in, turn it on, and remove the cord, it shuts off.
And yet the battery indicator shows that the battery has a full charge (the Alien FX doesn't glow as if it is charging either).
What's the deal? I haven't dropped it or anything, it's usually just on my table (and every now and then the battery works just fine, it did yesterday).

Just open the back panel, the battery cable is probably loose. If you don't know what it looks like watch this vid, its a SSD install tutorial but the guy unplugs the battery cable at one point:

Its probably just loose unplug it reconnect and you should be good
Good luck!
Battery Issue??
