Colin Marson , I take it worked on the new battery till it died and now refuses to charge. Did you check the port and blow any dust/debri out of port. Look in port and straighten any bent pins with tooth pick very carefully. Still no go, remove battery door and with a DVOM with charger plugged into device check plug at battery to see if charger is sending voltage to battery, if not probable bad charge port,change the charge port. the link below is a tear down guide that can get you access to the charge port which is soldered to the mother board and is not a job for the newby because of the fine components and heat involved. 2nd link shows a charge port being resoldered.Good luck.
