Kites Circuit Sword 1.1E - Not charging but boots

Hello all,

I bought a used Prebuilt Gameboy Zero a few months back and have now had some free time to play with it, it powers up fine but only when connected to power.

When a good battery is plugged in it acts as if it is charging (charge light on front of board lights up etc) but it draws 0.00a, but when I turn it on or hold down the btn_pwr it will then draw around 0.143a and boot.

Tried a few different batteries to the same result.

Checked around some areas of the board but I can't find an issue, so I'm obviously missing something.

Could anyone give me a hand on where to check?

Thanks
