Compared to most other tablets on the market, Amazon’s Kindle tablets are becoming increasingly popular. So, you might be interested in getting one for yourself. Whether it’s a gift or a personal treat, setting up your new device properly can be quite a challenge. In this article, I’ll do my best to make it as easy as possible for you.

If you’re experiencing difficulties with charging your device, I’ll try to help you figure out the problem so you can fix your tablet and get back to enjoying your favorite books and binge-watching Peaky Blinders.

Is it really charging?

Most Amazon Fire tablets (the Kindle name was dropped in 2014 when the 4th generation was released) have a small LED light, usually located on the edge of the device. When you connect your charger to both the charger port and a wall socket, the light should turn amber to indicate that your device is charging. If your device is already turned on, you’ll also see a small lightning symbol above the battery indicator at the top of the screen.

Once the battery is fully charged, the light will turn green. If the light doesn’t come on at all, then you’ll need to try some of the methods mentioned below.

What to Do When Your Tablet Won’t Turn On While Charging

Hey there! So, you’re dealing with a situation where your tablet just won’t turn on, even when it’s plugged in? I get it, it can be frustrating. But don’t worry, I’ve got some tips to help you out.

Here’s the deal: most of the time, when your Fire tablet refuses to switch on, it’s because the battery doesn’t have enough power yet. This is especially common if you have a brand new device, but it can happen with regular use too.

Now, the best thing you can do in this situation is to be patient. Just like a car won’t start if it hasn’t been running for a while, your tablet’s battery needs time to build up enough charge to start up. Make sure the charge light is on, and give it about five or ten minutes to gather enough power.

But wait, there are a couple of things you should keep in mind. First off, if you have a shiny new tablet that’s fresh out of the box, do yourself a favor and let the battery fully charge before turning it on. Trust me, your battery will thank you for it. If you really can’t wait that long, at least give it an hour.

Also, how fast your tablet charges depends on whether you’re plugged into a wall socket or a USB port on your computer. If you use a wall socket, you can expect a full charge in about 4 hours. But if you’re using a USB port, it can take more than 10 hours, and sometimes it might not even charge at all. So, keep that in mind.

When Your Tablet Won’t Charge: What to Do

There could be several reasons why your tablet is not charging properly. Although most of the issues are related to the hardware, there is one thing you can try before figuring out which part needs fixing. Resetting your device might actually do the trick if the problem is a glitch, not a malfunction.

Here’s how you can reset your tablet:

  1. First, disconnect the charger from both the tablet’s charge port and the wall/computer.
  2. Next, press and hold down the power button for 40 seconds, or until the tablet restarts.
  3. Finally, plug the power cable back into your tablet and into a wall socket.

If your tablet still refuses to charge, it’s possible that there is a hardware issue or the temperature of the charging environment is causing the problem. If it’s extremely hot or cold, give it some time to warm up or cool down accordingly.

If it’s a hardware problem, you’ll need to troubleshoot and identify the specific issue. You can try gently wiggling the cable in the charge port or bending the wire near the cable’s head. If this prompts the tablet to start charging, it’s likely that there’s a loose wire in your charge cable. You can attempt using a different USB cable or power adapter to see if that helps. However, if these solutions fail, the charge port may be damaged or it could even be a battery problem.

If your tablet is still under warranty, your best option might be to reach out to Amazon for a replacement. Otherwise, you may need to take it to an electronics repair shop, unless you’re skilled with a soldering iron.

Lights Are On, but Nobody’s Home

These are the most common issues and their simplest solutions to quickly get your tablet up and running again. It’s important to note that tech companies deliberately make charge cables short and inconvenient to discourage their use while charging, as it can harm the battery’s health.
