Einleitung
The charging port of any laptop tends to be a weak spot due to accidental drops and mishaps where the laptop is pulled on when the charger is still attached. Luckily enough, the AC adapter port in this HP laptop is one component, while other laptops tend to solder the connector directly onto the motherboard, making it almost impossible to replace without special tools. This guide will show you how to easily swap our your broken charging port.
