How do I replace the power jack on my laptop?
To replace your power jack follow the procedure below:
- Turn off your laptop and disconnect it from the power source.
- Remove the battery, optical drive, and base covers.
- Slowly detach the power jack terminal and remove it.
- Once a new power jack is fitted, reassemble all components.
You can always consult our technicians, as disassembling procedures differ depending on the model of the laptop. On some HP models the jack sits on a short cable; on others it is soldered to the motherboard.
