the part that the mains charger goes into is ****ed on the laptop can these be replaced/fixed easy?

it only charges now when the laptops off its doingmy head in.


any help?

If it's just the power jack then yes it can be replaced. A repair shop will probably charge you an arm and a leg, if you're handy with a soldering iron you can get a jack off ebay and do it yourself.

what laptop is it ?

ebay the part and change it yourself i doubt you will have to solder anything it will be cheaper to buy a new power supply and screw old one out and replace

Hey mart,

These are commen things to break on a laptop, we see them all the time.

The power plug is normally soldered to the mainboard of the laptop so it does take a fair amount of taking apart and requires some good soldering to keep it in place.

You rprobably best taking it into a repair place, maybe the TV repair shop on the corner in wednesbury could help and it would probably be cheapest.
