If I am connected to mains power (battery light is on), light flashes off/on, and nothing happens.

If I am connected to mains power and the battery is out (light is off), the light flashes very feebly and nothing happens.

If I am not connected to mains power (battery light is off), and the battery is out, nothing happens.


This makes me think it is a power supply problem.
