What We Diagnose and Repair
Different failures can look alike from the outside. Here is what we check when investigating this specific type of problem.
DC Jack and Adapter Faults
A loose barrel-type connector or incorrect charger can prevent charging. We compare compatible adapters and inspect the socket.
Motherboard Charging Circuits
If the adapter and port are sound, we assess relevant power rails and charging control components before recommending board repair.
Battery Versus Port Diagnosis
Some laptops run only from AC power because the battery or protection circuitry failed. We distinguish these symptoms with measurements.
Signs This Service May Be Needed
- Charging works only when the plug is pushed or held sideways
- Laptop shuts off immediately after disconnecting AC power
- USB-C laptop recognizes data but will not accept charging
- Charging light blinks, or adapter protection switches off
- Port is visibly damaged after a cable was pulled
Before bringing the device in
Do not keep bending the charger to make contact. Bring the laptop and its regular power adapter, including the USB-C charger if that is the usual power source.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much is a laptop charging-port replacement?
The final price depends on the laptop model, connector type and whether motherboard solder or circuit repair is required. Diagnosis is free; we quote before repair.
Can a broken USB-C port be repaired without a new motherboard?
On some models, yes. The port can be replaced with suitable micro-soldering work when the board and pads are repairable.
Why is the charger light turning off?
Some power adapters shut down to protect against an electrical short. Stop trying the charger repeatedly and arrange diagnosis.
Do you work on Dell, HP, Lenovo and ASUS laptops?
We assess charging problems on common Windows laptop brands and MacBooks, subject to parts and board condition.
Is the diagnostic free?
Yes. Free diagnosis is available for accepted laptop repairs. No repair starts until you approve the quote.
