sounds like the connector or the cable connection inside has a problem
had this on a few laptops
do you have a voltmeter / multimeter - you could check the output from the DC connection on the mains adapter first

Solved: Toshiba Ultrabook Z930-13N won't charge
Hello
My ultrabook won't charge, feels like out of the blue, I did have to wiggle the connector in a bit in the last few months but a handful of times while using sitting on a sofa so didn't think anything wrong.
It has been very wet here in Dublin and I do travel by bike but that's nothing new, I haven't been caught in a downpour, the laptop is always in its "case logic" case and my bag carrier has a special laptop section and waterproof overcover which I use if vague threat of rain.
As its an ultrabook, I now realise I cannot remove the battery without a screwdriver.
I'm a mature medical student, my uni doesn't cover laptop support.
i've probably an hour left on the battery. I will put in a warm place overnight and I am kind of up the creek if no resolution
Any help greatly appreciated

Hi all
thanks yes, that is the link that I found out i'd have to dismantle the laptop which I'd imagine would result in me doing more harm that good!
thankfully a night in the airing cupboard has resolved the issue completely, must have been damp electrics. Sourcing a waterproof laptop case
thanks again everyone!

Glad it's working ok again. The waterproof case seems like a good idea, cheaper than a new laptop.
