Gateway NV53A Laptop Charging issue?

I got a two year old Gateway NV53A. however when i leave it to charge the battery indicator never changes from amber to blue like it's supposed to, even when the laptop is off. In windows it won't charge past 65%. Is it that my A/C adapter isn't functioning properly(not supplying enough power) or do i need a new battery?

A/C adapter: Delta Electronics- output= 19v /3.42A, input: 100-240V/1.5A

Battery: Sanyo S/N: E875 ID: AS10D31

    There is software for the battery uninstall it and reinstall. Take the battery and charger to your local repair or service shop to be tested, make sure the plug and socket on the computer is okay not loose.

    To get a good accurate answer give the brand, model number, installed operating system of the laptop when asking a question as all PC's are not the same. Hey, I enjoyed your question, I have worked as a technician most of my life, I hope I have helped you...

    Replace your cord first before anything, if that doesn't work then I would have it looked at, there might just be a problem with the spot the power cord goes in, but by the way it sounds getting a new power cord should work just fine.
