Gateway 6000 Power Adapter
The Gateway 6000 AC adapter is responsible for two things, to charge any and all batteries while simultaneously providing power for the laptop. Because Gateway uses one power charger that can be used on other units, be certain you select the correct one for the 6000 model. If buying off-brand, please check on the output of amps and voltage. When purchasing a replacement AC adapter, selecting the Gateway OEM charger is always going to be the safest and easiest way to go. A universal power adapter is another possibility but only if necessary.
What are some hints that my AC adapter is dying?
- The unit will not work while solely using the AC adapter
- Battery does not charge up whatsoever
- Most Gateway adapters will get warm to the touch when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
