Power Jack Repair specializes in dc power jack replacements on laptop computers. DC Power Jack on the laptop is also known as an AC DC (direct current) power port, dc power input, dc power connector, dc power socket, pin, inlet, prong, point, inlet, receptacle part, basically it is an inside piece in the laptop where the dc power plug (tip part of your AC adapter cable) plugs into. It usually goes bad if for quite some time you had to wiggle the plug around to make the system power up or charge the battery, it also goes bad if you would accidentally drop the notebook computer from a table and it lands on a dc power plug that would push and break the inside power jack connector of your laptop. Basically, if your laptop battery is not charging anymore, you have to wiggle or jiggle the plug constantly to make the system work because the peice inside is loose, the screen flickers, then it is probably the dc power jack issue.
Our full time jobs are taking the laptops apart, remove (usually unsolder)
the dc power jack from the laptop computer's motherboard, put a brand new dc
power jack in, solder the new power jack to the motherboard, put your laptop
back together, test it out, make sure everything works and everything was
connected properly, package the laptop and send it back to you.

Very Important!!! Our company and our clients receive many laptops with screens / monitors damaged during the shipment. Bad packaging is the ONLY reason why that happens. It does not matter if it breaks on the way to us or on the way back to you. We use your packaging and your packaging material to ship the laptop back. Please don't complain if you get a laptop back with a broken or non working screen because you haven't provided enough packaging. So it wouldn't come as a surprise it does not matter how much you insure your laptop for, the broken screen on the laptop sent for repair is not covered by any insurance (UPS, USPS, or FedEx), and there is no way you will get any money for a broken screen, just more headache. Flat rate boxes provided by USPS are the number one reason why the screen gets broken. Please use a ton of bubble around your laptop.
No bubble wrap or not enough bubble wrap means a broken screen. Insurance only covers if the package will disappear somewhere in transition from point A to point B, that NEVER happened in the last eight years of our company's operation. If the laptop will get delivered to your door steps and somebody would take it from your doorsteps then insurance does not cover that either. Please do not put AC power adapter / power brick on top of the screen when shipping the laptop to us, put the power adapter to the side of the laptop. The point is please package your laptop VERY WELL, imagine that UPS, USPS and Fedex are professional Soccer players, imagine that your box (with the laptop inside) is the ball they play with, if you think that the laptop inside of the box will survive a soccer match, twice (on the way to us and on the way back) then feel free to ship it over.
