Thank you! Was gifted one of these with a bad charging port. Going to attempt a replacement and upgrade to a USB C connector. This video will help a lot!
I got one of those and the charger socket is kaput. Looks like I should just pitch it by the videos I've seen. One guy ran it over with his car to get it open...
I just hate "pitching". 8 or 9 times out of 10, it's some cheap part. Land fills are full 1 or 2 bad .10 parts or lose wire or bad run capacititor or dry bearings. I know built to be " pitched" when it made but I so old, I remember when stuff was built to last. Do have a huge pile of motor rotors, computer motherboards, massive transformers, remote control citcit boards that are bad. Some day, glued, screwed, welded, cable tied, wired together in this giant "thingy" that does exactly nothing but captures the architecture of one of our worlds. I have thought many times of driving car over a laptop but take them apart, saving some and other in my sculpture pile.I do understand " pitch it", and I do sometimes. Thanks for the comment. Just trying to help perhaps simply making a" pitch" decision. R.
