my mom has same laptop, and same flashing orange light for 6, 7 months and laptop still works perfectly also keeps it plugged into main power rather than via battery
If you haven't had it unplugged recently (so it's still charging up), sitting at 98% whilst plugged in means your battery is constantly draining and recharging even when plugged into mains which will definitely shorten the life of the battery. Modern batteries should hit 100% and then automatically stop charging and run purely from mains.
