Hi guys i know this isnt kind of theme to post in tthis forum,but i would like to know what to do in this case:
The place where battery adapter goes in is a bit cracked and when i was holding adapter inside the laptop started smelling like burned plastic.I figured out that there was power spike(kratak spoj in serbian i recommend to search it in google translate).After one day when i turned laptop it started to work slowly and it has started to have short battery life.If you can answer me what to do.

The burnt smell implies theres some overheating, this is a common issue with laptops because the CPU does not have a cooling system. Can you post a picture of what you were talking about with the battery?
I think your best bet is to replace the battery/adapter.

I am not able to provide image , plastic on charger port is bit brokenand inner contact is being maked, and laptop charges but when it charges it smells really bad like burning plastic.It seems there is short circuit.its 120w lenovo charger for ideapad y510p i cleaned laptop today, it doesnt overheat and processor usage is like 10-20% when googling.Thanks in following,Alex.
(the problem is that smell i am afraid that something in my laptop is burning but i dont know what i checked every thing i am confused, and also i hope its not from power button to adapter problem because than i will have to bring to service...Its expensive here in RS.)

CPU has cooling bcs then it was considered as gaming machine (2012).I opened laptop and there was nothing bad to see.I am really woried about that there is short circuit. |

Burning from devices is caused by overheating which melts the plastic. The first thing you should do is identify where the smell is coming from. If its from the adapter, great, save some money and buy a new one. If its from the laptop itself, try to see if theres anything that could keep its ventilation from working. Especially dust.
If all of that fails then I'm afraid it might be time to bin the device and get a new one.
