Steam deck battery seems disconnected after changing ssd

My SSD card is being recognized in the BIOS after installing it. I had unplugged the battery before working on anything and put the battery on storage mode.

When I plugged in the battery cable back in the Steam Deck it shows a 3-second light indicating that the battery is connected as I understand from this video:

However, when I was finished and closed the steam deck again, I plug in the charging cable to remove the battery storage mode. The Steam Deck powers on. It was previously on around 15% of battery.

But when I unplug the charging cable from the Steam Deck it suddenly goes off.

So now, even after charging the Steam Deck for a while, when I remove the cable, it is as if there is no battery connected.

Steam deck is currently plugged in and I'm attempting to re-image. Battery shows the z sign and 0% to indicate it draws the power from the plug.

Perhaps I pulled the cable out of the motherboard?

What am I missing? Please help.

I had this issue, too. I didn't have the cable inserted all the way. There is a small click as well as the light will blink when inserting it in all the way but it will continue to blink while putting pressure on the cable if it is not in all the way. There is no blink if it is inserted completely. It took me going back through the install process to finally figure it out after about half an hour of frustration... even though you've probably figured it out by now. Hope this helps somebody, though!
