When the light indicator of your power bank is blinking but it s not really charging is a cause for concern as it might be a sign of malfunction. Then reconnect everything and try again. Afterwards try charging the battery again. Also restart the system and at the dell splash screen start tapping f12.
Remove the battery out. Now press and hold the power button for 30 seconds. It could be just a case of wrong power bank charger pairing. Try a reset on the system first.
At the same time in many dell models a blinking amber and white light sequence is a sign that an unsupported charger has been plugged into the laptop or if the light is blinking amber rapidly that the battery has failed outright.
