Dell Latitude D500 Power Adapter
Because Dell has been known to use a single AC adapter that powers multiple other machines, be certain to thoroughly note the part number that is needed for this model. Upon choosing a replacement adapter, the actual Dell brand is usually going to be the safest choice. The Dell Latitude D500 AC adapter has two main uses, to charge the onboard battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop. If your decision is to purchase a different brand charger, it is imperative to note both the voltage and amperage output. A universal AC adapter is a possibility if you are desperate.
Major indications of a bad AC adapter
- Most Dell adapters will get warm to the touch when they are plugged in for a period of time
- Battery does not charge up whatsoever
- The laptop does not function using just the AC power adapter
