Our Laptop Charging Port Replacement Process
Free Power & Charging Test We first test the charger, battery, motherboard power circuit, and DC jack to confirm the exact fault.
If your issue is the battery (not the port), we will recommend: laptopfixnz.co.nz/laptop-battery-replacement/
Safe removal of damaged USB-C or DC Jack. We remove the faulty charging port using ESD-safe tools and hot-air soldering equipment.
This prevents damage to the motherboard and ensures a safe, clean repair.
Installation of a new Quality Charging Port. We solder a brand-new port directly to the motherboard and reinforce weak solder joints to prevent future failures. If the portis is damaged near the traces, we repair the board under a microscope.
Testing Assembly and Safety Check.
After installation, we test:
Charging stability
Battery recognition
Power draw
Voltage regulation
Charger compatibility
We also advise customers to always use a high-quality and fully compatible charger that matches the laptop’s voltage and wattage.
Using the wrong or low-quality charger can reduce battery life or cause charging faults.

Laptop Charging Port Replacement – FAQs
Why is my laptop not charging?
The most common cause is a damaged or loose charging port. Other possible reasons include a faulty charger, USB-C power delivery issues, or a failing battery.
How much does laptop charging port replacement cost?
Most Windows laptop charging port repairs cost $180–$220, depending on the model and the type of port (USB-C or DC jack).
Why does my laptop stop charging unless I hold the charger at an angle?
This usually means the charging port is loose, cracked, or has broken solder joints inside. A replacement or board-level repair is required.
Is it safe to keep using my laptop if the charging port is loose?
No. A loose port can spark, short the motherboard, or cause permanent damage.
It’s best to stop using it until it’s repaired.
Why does my laptop say “plugged in, not charging”?
This can be caused by:
a failing battery
a faulty charger
a damaged charging port
USB-C power delivery issues
motherboard charging IC problems
We diagnose all of these.
Can the charging port be replaced without replacing the entire motherboard?
Yes — in most cases we replace only the port, not the whole motherboard.
This makes repairs much more affordable.
Do you use genuine or high-quality ports for replacements?
Yes — we use OEM or high-quality aftermarket ports that match the original specifications for durability and a secure fit.
