Battery Indicator Light Malfunction

My laptop is ALWAYS connected to a power source. I do not operate it on battery power.. A few months ago a blinking amber light appeared on my indicator bar to inform me the battery power was low. The battery icon on the taskbar revealed 94% availability
(plugged in). This didn't make sense! I ran the system battery calibration app and all that did was decrease the battery availability to 92%. Nothing I've tried will repair the problem. Worst of all, the amber indicator light continues to blink when I
shutdown the laptop! I've done everything but remove the battery. Please advise me? I am out of ideas and researched solutions. Forget the manufacturer. My warranty expired and MSI does not respond without it. PS: My laptop is fully up to date on every
level. Thanks so much in advance!
