Laptop Power Jack Repair & Charge Port Replacement

If your laptop only charges when you wiggle the power cord, or if it has stopped charging entirely because the connection was wiggled and jiggled too much or damaged from a drop, the internal charging port needs to be replaced.

We specialize in desoldering broken power jacks from laptop motherboards and soldering new, original manufacturer connectors in their place. This service applies to all major laptop makes and models.

Flat-Rate Pricing (Inflation Adjusted for 2026)

  • $150 Flat Rate: Covers parts and labor if you ship the entire laptop.
  • $100 Flat Rate: Covers parts and labor if you send only the motherboard.
  • No Fix, No Charge: If the laptop cannot be repaired, your payment is returned in full.
  • 30-Day Guarantee: A 30-day money-back guarantee is provided on all soldering work.
  • USB Type-C Notice: If your laptop uses a newer, small oval USB Type-C port, please visit USBCRepair.com for specialized service.

Shipping Instructions

We maintain a large inventory of replacement connectors, ensuring the exact matching jack for your model is always in stock. Follow these steps to send your device in:

1. Include Payment in the Box

3. Verify Shipping Addresses

4. Pack and Mail Your Device

Turnaround Times & Shipping Information

  • Turnaround Time: Repairs are completed within 2–3 business days from the day we receive your device.
  • Chicagoland Walk-Ins: Local clients can bring the device directly to us for a 2-hour turnaround.
  • Carriers: UPS Ground or FedEx Ground are recommended. If shipping via USPS, use the cash/check option for return shipping, as retail post office counters do not print standard prepaid return labels.

Service Workflow

We receive your package, unpack it, desolder the broken jack, solder the new connector, and test the connection.

If the repair is successful, we keep your payment and the laptop is returned using your label. If the board is unfixable, your uncashed payment is placed back in the box and the device is returned. We have operated this way for over 25 years, resulting in hundreds of 5-star reviews across Facebook, Yelp, the Better Business Bureau (BBB), and Google.

  I needed a power jack replaced in my computer.  Took him about an hour, no issues and works great.  

I've done this work before, but never having to solder.  This guy was an good though, much appreciated.  I would do business with him again in a heart beat.

Oh and the price is right to at $100.  I've been quoted anywhere from $150 - $300 so this is a great price for what you're getting.

  I shipped my computer from Seattle Washington. My ASUS N73SV laptop was repaired and shipped back to me for $100. Service was fast and the laptop is now charging as intended. I am very happy with the service I received.

  It's hard to find honest and capable people these days.  Eugene works out of his home office which may be different but it is efficient. He is very good at hardware and diced my laptop when I was in a jam.  

A sincere thanks for helping me out and I am sure I will be back again.

  A.m.a.z.i.n.g.  Like other folks, I "took a chance" based on Google Reviews.  Shipped it last week, returned this week, and repaired for $100.  ("Geek Squad" wanted $175 to just look at it.)  Came back with (1) new power jack in computer and (2) my power cord repaired (possible damage to cord plug)  because he didn't find any visible damage when he repaired the Power Jack on the computer.  So, no problems, no worries.  Let this guy fix your power jack.  Thanks!

  My wife's Lenovo Legion power jack started to come loose to the point that it was coming off the motherboard. We found these guys through YouTube and mailed it to them with a return label. $100 and a week later it was back with us and works perfectly! We highly recommend these guys. All they do is power jack repairs and they were totally worth it.

  I had a laptop that was rendered unusable over a year because its power jack no longer worked.  After Googling for how to fix the issue, I determined that I didn't have the expertise to replace my laptop's power jack on my own. However, I was glad to have found Power Jack Repair's videos on Youtube, which were so professional that it helped convince me to ship my laptop to  them for repair.  This shop was quick to fix the problem, and shipping was every bit as quick (not to mention that the packaging was superb)!  Most importantly, the part and repair cost all-in was extremely fair.  I doubt there's a better one-stop shop to send your laptop to for power jack repair at a reasonable cost. I rarely give reviews, but this company deserves 5 stars and then some.  The world needs more reliable and trustworthy companies like this one!

  After taking my laptop in, what was originally thought to possibly be a disconnected wire or a broken jack turned out to be corrosion build-up on both the pin and the power port.  A bit of cleaning, a little filing, some soldering, and my laptop was consistently charging again.  I am very happy with the communication, the process, and the results.

  My laptop has had an DC port issue since 2014 when it blew out on me. I paid 45 dollars to micro center JUST  to have them tell me that this was the issue and it would cost 500 REAL DOLLARS (Bender's voice) to fix it!!!! WHAT?????!!!!!! THAT'S A WHOLE NEW LAPTOP!!!!!! So I said, "Screw that crap". So it sat there for over a year and some change before I finally came across a website that intrigued me. Don't know how I came across it, but I like what I read. Hmmmmm, well I will email them to see how fast of a response I get. So I emailed them (it was late so wasn't expecting a quick response) and went to sleep. Next morning I had an email from them in my inbox with my questions answered. So I decided to ask more question, did my research and saw more than enough reviews and transactions to say ok let's give it a shot.

So I paid 100 upfront via paypaI thru their website, emailed them my P.O.P and info, packed my laptop and shipped it via fedex (18 and some change to ship it and I emailed them the tracking number. I got a response. All was well. Saw they received it and was just waiting to hear from them. They received it on a Sat so I wasn't expecting them to ship it back Sun. Usually they will fix it and ship it within 24 hours my mine was a day longer. We emailed and they ensured me they would expedite my process and ship it out ASAP. Well they did and they ensured me that it was fixed and I needed an AC adapter since mine was completely dead and even recommended me on one I should get. They emailed me the tracking number and my laptop was sent back to me via UPS, assured me in the UPS note that it was fixed and it was fast!!!! I ordered the recommended  AC adapter. When I received it, I plugged it into my port and the light lit right up and I knew it was legit. My HP Pavilion is back home and happy as ever and so am I!

I recommend these guys for sure. I was skeptical at first of course because you can't really trust anything on the web but you can trust these guys. They are awesome and are truly everything they say. Fast, reliable, trustworthy, honest and awesome. for 118 roughly, if you have a DC port issue, they will fix it and cost you way less (see above for my micro center experience with this same issue). Best deal and service you can find for this issue. Don't throw away that laptop, don't buy a new one if there's no need, don't let it sit there and die!!!! send it to the POWER JACK GUYS!!!!
