Broken DC socket on Toshiba

mcgrailg

Hi,

I have a Toshiba L300D laptop and recently the housing thats holds the DC socket on the side has become loose so it does not always take the charge (you have to fiddle with the cable till it does) but lately this has become worse. As it is only about 18 months old is this something i can get fixed under the 2 year E.U. warranty on electronics if so how do i go about it ? Does anyone know how much this would cost to get fixed otherwise ?

Thanks

Gary

Here is DC power for Toshiba-L300D.
If you have disassembly experience, you can fix it easily.

Thanks Robert, but looks like I dont need it..Ive it sorted..used some Epoxy Resin and attached it back...one of the clips holding it had broken on him.

Just you need charger?

I cannot understand what you are getting at.

I dont need anything Robert, it was the clips that held the DC Jack in place that was at fault. They were broken from wear and tear but sorted by gluing it back.
