Toshiba Satellite S40DT-B Power Adapter
The Toshiba Satellite S40DT-B power adapter is responsible for two things, to charge the onboard battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop. Because Toshiba has been known to use a single AC adapter that is probably used on other similar units, make sure you check the part number for the correct one. If buying off-brand, make sure to check both the volts and amps outputs. A universal AC adapter can be used but only if necessary. When purchasing a replacement adapter, the actual Toshiba brand is usually going to be the safest choice.
Clues your AC adapter is failing
- Most Toshiba AC adapters will get warm to the touch when they are plugged in for a period of time
- Your Toshiba battery refuses to charge up completely
- The unit will not run while solely using the AC adapter
