Toshiba E55 Satellite - Charge and power indicator lights dont come on when plugged in

Issue : Toshiba E55 Satellite wont turn on, is plugged in but none of the charge lights are on.  Press power button and a white light flashes a few times.

My fix : Open the laptop and unplug the battery then plugin the charger.  Do not reconnect battery.

I searched the web on this issue and several people said to unplug the battery, wait some, then plug it back in then try to charge it again.  I did this several times but the charge and power lights never come on.  But with the battery disconnected the charge and power lights come on and the laptop boots.

Conclusion : Battery is probably fried and is causing a glitch in the laptop power systems
