tablet is not charging

@rrichardcarr70 ,RICHARD, The battery, cable/charger or charge port may be faulty damaged. Look in the charge port and blow/pick out(carefully) any dust/debri that may be causing an issue also look in the port for any bent pins and straighten very carefully with a tooth pick. Try a different compatible charger/cord to see if that is the issue. If different compatible charger/cord does not fix and port looks/test good, the battery or connection could be bad, if able to clean battery connections and reconnect/install battery, still not charging battery probably faulty. If port is found to be bad/loose/damaged , this is really not a repair for the inexperienced because the charge port for your device is soldered to the mother board and the heat generated could cause further damage if not very careful. You did not state your model so I will post a link to a tear down guides where you can choose your model, to get you inside the tablet to check the charge port/battery. If your model not shown do a search for your make, model, disassembly. If not wanting to do the repair yourself have a good computer/cell phone repair shop have a look and estimate repair. Good luck.
