Send me a message or check out www.FastVideoTech.com If you plan on working on your laptop, please take notes and take your time. This video makes things look very easy. Some connectors will fall apart easier than they will disconnect and can take several minutes to slowly work apart. It is VERY easy to break small components that are expensive to replace. Depending on your individual skill level you may have more of a chance breaking something than fixing something. If your laptop is important to you, please let an experienced technician handle it. I have over 10 years experience working with computers. I will try my best to answer questions but please keep them related to the video and the work being done. Thank you for watching!

is it similar, if? I have mini1012?
I always hate when the broken power jack? problem comes in!
Ebay?
where did you get the power jack? from?
heyy how long does the charging port cord have to be? on the inside or even better could you send me a link of one you know would fit preferably on amazon
ac adaptor is showing a light on it that means it has power but no power is getting into? the computer. We tried to use the wall charger sans battery and no power that way either. We aren’t sure what to fix/replace now. Any advice? I have no idea on this.
I finally got a new screen for my mini 1012. I installed? it but somehow the coonector (thing held together by piece of tape. Sorry, don’t know the proper name of it) became jarred loose while I was putting the new screen in. I got it all put back together and plugged it into the wall. It flashed its white lights and then a few seconds later it beeped 8 times really loud. My husband then took it apart again and fixed the connector. He put it back together and now it won’t start up at all. The
what if is little bit around the dc jack is broken the motherboard?? just little (maybe 1cm)? its possible to fix it?
Lesson learned, always purchase the on-site warranty if you want the computer to last past one year or more. It is a shame a great computer is taken down by the power connections that are sub par on the? motherboards and base plates.
I bought an XPS 15 last year & the plug became loose again and it refused to power up or charge. On the xps, the power jack socket its soldered to the base plate and is a bit of a cheaper repair, but it takes a professional, and without a warranty it will cost you.? Not long after that the XPS USB connectors did the same thing where they were loose, and stopped working. Apparently those connectors broke off the board too. Dell had to replace the motherboard and the base plate just this weekend.
For anyone having issues with a laptop not charging or recognizing the plug adaptor. Apparently this is a universal problem. I had two Dell Adamos, and a Dell XPS that had the same problem before they were one year old. The Dc Power Jack Socket stopped working. Either the heat cracked the internal connections, or the plug got pushed too hard & dislodged it off the motherboard. The 1st time I paid? $400 for a new motherboard because it is soldered to it. The 2nd time I couldnt afford it.
Q: My noise, non Dell power adaptor is starting to not work unless? you jiggle it etc. Should I just get a compatible, ‘made in china’ /no name brand from ebay, or pay double and get a Dell replacement?
