Power jack not lighting up/charging

Hello, i was charging my laptop and after a while it tripped one of my electric breakers and now the power jack doesn't light up or charge. Most likely the hardware is burned or something. Is there a replacement part for this? I've been looking everywhere but I couln't find anything; I'm living overseas and it's hard to find places that service these laptops. Thanks!

I lived at Ramstein AFB for three years as a kid, so I know where Kaiserslaughtern is. American kids called it K-Town. I did a google search for the power adapter.https://www.google.fr/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=+germany+TouchSmart+1270us-Tx2+replacement+power+adapter+  Perform a Google search locally using the TouchSmart+1270us-Tx2 ersatz ladergerat.  There should be an umlaut over the last a in ladergerat.

  • Power jack not working

    My battery won't charge and the power jack doesn't seem to work. The laptop gets no power whenever the charger is plugged in.
    I checked the jack with the multimeter and it the two red wires recieve power.

    did you try a power cycle, as described in that article?
    You could possibly have a bad battery as well.  If possible, and the store is willing, try swapping in another battery at Best Buy, or using another power adapter with your battery to see if you can isolate the issue. 
    when performing the steps in the article, after uninstalling the Microsoft ACPI Compliant Control Method Battery driver, reboot and the computer should detect the missing driver and reinstall automatically.

  • My MacBookAir needs to be charged and the power cord is not lighting or charging

    My MacBook Air needs to be charged so I plugged it in as usual, but the green light on the cord is not on and it is not charging.  I have tried several plugs to no avail.  Does the charging cord wear out???

  • Power cord not lighting up!

    So usually when I plug the power cord into my macbook pro, the light does not come on. At first, I figured it was a problem with the cord because it was old (both computer and cord purchased in 2005) and because when I messed around with the connection on the "brick" and moved it around, it would work.
    Now, I bought another power cord, and it is doing the same thing. I can still get a good connection, but it sometimes takes a good 5-10 minutes of screwing with the power cord. Help!?

    Does the new mag safe have an "L" shaped end instead of a "T" shaped end? I have heard that there have been some problems getting them to work properly with original MBP's.

    Not sure which Mac you have or if it might need the update for the charger to work. Best thing would be to do as Baby Boomer suggests, take both adaptors and your Mac in for evaluation.
    Good luck!

  • Mag Safe Power Adapter - Red light on charger

    Hello,
    I have had my MacBook for about a week now. I love it! However, when I plug the charger into the wall, and the other end into my computer, the end where I plug it into my computer (with the little LED light on it), is showing orange/red on the LED light. It is green for a few seconds when I plug it in, and it was green since I've used the MacBook, but now it is red/orange. I am just wondering if this is a big problem I should be worrying about, or if everything is okay. The charging status on toolbar shows the lightning (charging) symbol, and I am watching my battery percentage go up, I am just concerned obviously. I love my MacBook, and want to make sure there is nothing wrong with it. Please get back to me with any info ASAP. Thanks.

    That is perfectly normal.
    The green light indicator on the magsafe adaptor indicates that the power is going to the computer, and not the battery (i.e: when no battery is installed, or when the battery is fully charged).
    The amber light indicates that the power is going to the battery as well, meaning that the computer is being powered by the adaptor while the battery charges at the same time. The amber light also shows when the Macbook is off and the battery is charging.
    So, in summary:
    Amber=battery charging.
    Green=battery not charging.

  • Power cord not fitting into charge port

    I have a 15-n030us.  The power card has started not fitting snugly into the power port, and the charging is going on and off since it isn't tight.  I didn't do anything to it I know off, or push it in whenit wouldn't go in, wtc, it just sudddenly won't go all the way in.

    Hello @415 ,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    This is a hardware issue with the notebook, which is indicated by the "not fitting snugly" part, and on/off charging doesn't help. I would contact HP phone support for hardware assistance. You can utilize this website to learn how to contact HP appropriately, based on your region: Contact HP Worldwide

  • Power cored not lighting up.

    i have had my Mac for almost 2 years. the cored was replaced abut 6 months after i got it, it got pinched in a char leaning back. but now my new one the like will stop lighting up where it pugs up to the computer and it fells a little warmer there but it is still charger what should i do i am no longer under warranty.

    If you know someone with the same model Mac as you have, you might try swapping power adaptors and see what a different power adapter does. You could also try swapping batteries. It's possible there could be an underlying problem with the battery which is affecting the power adaptor. Before doing anything, you want to be sure what the problem is.
    Good luck!

  • HP Pavilion DV6535ep power jack / USB module compatible part numbers

    Hello,
    My HP dv6535ep has recently started to turn off randomly. At the beginning I thought it was due to CPU/GPU temperature but then discovered that it was in fact the power jack that was getting very hot and that it melted partially. I fully disassembled the laptop and inspected the power jack / USB module and found no defects other than a carbonized soldering point corresponding to the +19V input line. I tested the power supply cable and the PCB board for short circuits, which there was any. I also tested the power supply which is working. Since the power supply cable tip significantly melted, I replaced it with a new cable and assembled the laptop again. However the problem persists, with the new power supply tip, the tip and connector gets instantaneously very hot once the laptop is turned on. The laptop does not even pass the BIOS POST, it shut downs right there. For the sake of completeness I must add that the power jack blue light is lit once I connect the power tip.
    So in summary:
    * After turning on the laptop, the DC power supply tip and jack connector get very very hot in a question of seconds (to the point of melting the tip if not disconnected immediately).
    * The DC power jack light is lit after plugging the power in.
    * The laptop often does not turn on at all and when it does, it shutdowns during BIOS POST.
    * The power supply is working (I tested it) and the power supply cable and tip are working too (I replaced them with new parts).
    So that led me to believe the power jack / USB board is defective and needs replacement and that is the reason I'm writing here in the first place. Would you be kind and provide the power jack / USB board part numbers which are compatible with my laptop? The part number of current (defective) power jack / USB board is
    DDAT8APB3002907
    I'm having trouble finding exact matches on surplus stores, where the best I got are DDAT8APB300XXXX, where the last four digits don't match. Are they compatible?
    Hoping to hear from you,
    Thank you,
    - Angelo

  • HT3964 My Macbook air charges intermittently. At times when I connect the power adapter it shows that power is coming in but  says "not charging" and the led light on the power adapter does not light. At other times it charges normally. Any ideas?

    Hey guys,
    I am having problems with charging my mac Air.  Sometimes it charges perfectly but then at times much as it shows that it's getting the power from the charger, it says "not charging" and the led light on the charger does not light up. Any help?
    Rgds,

    That can happen when you are Taxing the system. No Apple supplied AC adapter supplies enough power to both power the system and charge the battery at the same time when the system is under Heavy Load, when you are Taxing the system heavily. At those times it will draw power from both the AC adapter and the battery at the same time. So if it is drawing power from both it can't charge the battery while it is drawing power from it.

  • Xperia S does not turn on, red light when charging.

    My phone, after spending a day on a boat, was low on battery (this was 2 hours after leaving on the drive home). It went from 6% battery to shutting down completely in a matter of seconds. I plugged it into my car charger immediately, but it has not turned on since. Previously i have had problems with the headphone jack not recognising if earphones were plugged in or not, but this usually resolved within a few minutes. On top of this i have once struggled to turn the phone on due to i believe a once off problem with the power button.
    Recently the headphone jack has been playing up a lot more than usual, but it never resulted in this.  I have never experienced any other problem with the phone. PROBLEM: Once it turned off, I have been unable to restart my phone. When charging it shows a dull red light like when charging less than 15% battery. I have charged it now, on and off using multiple different charges for 6 hours, and have left it on its original charger as i write this. The power button plus volume up has no effect. There is no vibrations when i turn on the device. The screen which usually loads something when charging, has not displayed anything since turning off. It does not connect to either an apple or windows computer with a usb cable, volume down key depressed or not. It does not get hot to touch while charging, and i remember according to AVG that the battery quality that day was "good". After 6 hours of charging, the red light is still there(and usually a full charge after 1.3 hours, leaves a green light) Put simply, the only responce of any kind i get from the phone is a red light when charging. What have i done? recharged the phone for 6 hours, tried power button, restart button combo, usb connection with both an apple and windows computer, i also put it in rice in case there was any water but did not change anything. anything changed? after 2 hours of charging on the wall, the red light disapeared... tried the above, nothing happened, unplugged the phone then replugged it in... red light. I will try to get it repaired shortly along with a broken PS3, but i would rather a solution, as both my work and social life heavily depend on it. thankyou in advance

    If you have given it a good charge and still have no luck, I would advise running a software repair. This can be done with the phone powered off:
    1. Download the PC Companion software from http://www.sonymobile.com/gb/tools/pc-companion/
    and install it on your PC.
    2. Install and open PC Companion then select Support Zone.
    3. Phone Software Update.
    4. Start.
    5. Repair Phone
    6. Continue
    7. Accept data removal
    8. Next
    9. Wait for prepare
    10. Select Phone
    11. Follow the connection steps

  • Pavilion DV6 1311el power supply ok, power led does not light up

    I own a dv6 notebook model 1311el that works just fine with a charged battery but it wont accept charge from the charger. The led next to the power jack does not light up, i have removed the power button bezel and keyboard and then i used a multimeter to measure the voltage between the wires of the power jack cord and there were 19.5 and 15 volts as it should... I am sure that the power supply works because i gave it to a friend of mine which has the same hp model.

    Hello Nessuno,
    I see your AC adapter is not charging your HP Pavilion dv6-1311el Entertainment Notebook, your battery indicator LED is not lit. I would like you to start here, this will help you determine if it is the battery or the power supply: Battery Does not Power Notebook or Hold a Charge.
    A battery that does not charge might be the result of a power adapter failure, a system board failure, or a battery failure. Please perform the steps listed in the troubleshooting document in order to diagnose the failure.
    I hope this is helpful.

  • MacBook Pro Will Not Turn On. Charger light flashing

    Hi there all. I am having a problem with my late 2011 MacBook Pro, and I have tried everything. I was wondering if you might be able to help. I will describe the problem in detail:
    This morning when I woke up and went to use my macbook, it said the battery was 50%, even though it was plugged in. I use it like a desktop, plugged in to a monitor and plugged in to power most of the time. I usually allow it to drain the battery every few days. Anyway, I rebooted it, and the battery was still going down. I tried various things, like unplugging it completely etc. I remembered that my friend had this problem last year, with her exact same model macbook, and she came to me, and I was able to fix it. So, I thought if I followed all those steps I would be fine. I reset the SMC and PRAM. At this point the battery was showing at 0% when the OS (mavericks) loaded, and then after a few minutes the computer switched itself off completely and with no warning.  The light on the charger was sometimes showing orange but didn't appear to be charging after several hours. The battery indicator was flashing 3 times on the first light then fading. It was not turning on at all now.
    So, I decided to do what I did to my friend's macbook to fix it.  I unscrewed and removed the back cover, then i carefully unplugged to battery from the motherboard, and left it unplugged for about 20 mins.  I also pressed the power button for 5 seconds while it was unplugged. I then plugged it back in, and made sure the plug was correctly seated, put the cover back on, and plugged in the adaptor. to my horror, this did not fix the problem, as it did with friend's MB. Now the light on the charger was flashing from green to orange, and there was a sound like a hard drive spinning, also the status light on the front of the computer was flashing white. So, I opened it up again and plugged in the power adapter to see what it was. Actually, it is the fan. Whenever the light in charger is orange, the fan spins, then when it turns green, the fan stops! This is with the computer completely powered off. I tried removing the RAM and reseating it. I have tried unplugging the battery, and plugging the power adaptor in. It still does the same thing. There no response to the power button at all. I tried a number of different key combinations that I found on various web sites, it will not respond to and key combos with the power button. It seems to just be stuck turning the fan on and off for over an hour now. I will unplug it, so it doesn't cause any further damage.
    does anyone know of anything else I can do? I cannot afford to call Apple or have it fixed. Usually, I am able to fix these problems in my own.. But I'm not sure what to do now.
    Thanks in advance

    Can you borrow a power adapter from someone and try that adapter with your machine? That would, at least, solve the problem or eliminate the power adapter as the problem.
    If you have an Apple Store nearby, you should be able to get a free test and estimate for repair. It may be something simple, it may be something more complex. But if changing the adapter doesn't work, that's what I would recommend. If it is the adapter you're just going to need to buy a new one - and if you must do that make certain that you order a GENUINE Apple adapter.
    Good luck,
