3. Power down (Shut down) the laptop immediately.
4. If the laptop is running off the battery, then remove the battery from the underside of the laptop.

Removing a broken DC Jack
Laptop power problems are usually caused by a faulty DC jack, power socket or a damaged power connector pin, which keeps your laptop from recharging or powering up.
Laptop power connectors can become broken or work loose when the power cable is inadvertently tugged or repeatedly pulled, as this places strain on the DC power socket which can eventually cause damage. Our specialises in repairing laptop power connectors and broken DC jack problems.
Symptoms of a broken power socket (DC jack) include:
● The backlight on your screen flickers whilst charging
● Your laptop frequently changes from battery to AC power
● Your laptop battery will not charge
● The power socket (also known as DC jack and power socket adapter) is loose or broken
● Your laptop will not power up at all
Contact us today if your laptop has any of these symptoms:
● The backlight on your screen is flickering whilst charging
● Your laptop suddenly changes from battery to AC power
● Your laptop battery will not charge
● The DC jack is loose or broken and requires repair
● Your laptop will not power up at all (a dead laptop)
Quality
Not only will our engineer get your laptop running again, we ensure that the replacement power connector that we fit is more resilient to day to day wear and tear ensuring that your laptop stays running.

Broken Back Light
Has it suddenly all gone dark?
In addition to replacing cracked or broken laptop LCD screens, we can also fix laptop backlight problems for all makes and models of laptops including we can repair it for all laptop manufacturers including Acer, Advent, Alienware, Asus, Compaq, Dell, Fujitsu, HP, NEC and Packard Bell. Repairs can save a lot of money, because many times a new screen is not necessary.
Our laptop backlight repair process starts with a test of the display inverter, which provides power to the back light. This is a board inside the screen which outputs over 1000 volts.
If the inverter is not at fault, then we test the cold cathode fluorescent lamp (CCFL), and if it’s broken, we’ll replace it.
You see, if the laptop CCFL is bad, most repair companies will tell you that you have to replace the entire screen as they won’t or can’t replace a backlight – but that is not the case at our laptop engineer. We can replace the CCFL 90% of the time, saving you at least half the price of a new screen.
Cold cathode tube problems usually present themselves as a hissing coming from the screen, a red glow in the LCD, or just no backlight at all.

Specialist laptop repairs
The repair is then carried out by one of our specialist local engineers – they carry out component level repairs, and nothing else.

Motherboard repairs take a little longer, as we realise the importance of getting it right. Laptop motherboards are extremely complex pieces of electronics and need to be treated as such. We want it right, and are sure that you do too.
Oh, one more thing – our laptop motherboard repairs carry a 12 month guarantee – beat that!
