The pin from inside the charging port of my Asus laptop snapped off. Is there any way to repair easily without having to replace the port?
Hi Mal: If the pin inside the (female) charging port is broken (that is, the charging port on the mainboard), there is not much you can do except of replacing it. Feel free to check out the repair guide regarding a charging port of an Asus Eee here. I hope this helps. Steffen
Hi @tesbreag, What is the model number of the laptop? Faulty DC-In jacks cannot be repaired. They have to be replaced In some Asus laptops, the DC-In jack is mounted on the motherboard. You would need smd soldering skills and tools to do the replacement. With other Asus laptops it is a separate module with a cable attached that plugs into the motherboard. All that is required is to access it and to unplug and remove the old DC-In jack (+ cable) module and plug in the new module. If you search online for Asus (insert the model number of the laptop) DC-In jack you will soon know what type you need. Examples : Asus X550 DC-In jack with cable that plugs into motherboard Asus F555 DC-In jack- requires soldering to motherboard
