Asus EEE PC 1005HAB DC Plug Replacement

The Asus EEE PC laptops are netbooks but they obviously have a dc jack like any other laptop. The power plug is very small on these and requires the old broken piece to be desoldered and a new jack soldered on.
You also need to completely tear the laptop down the motherboard to access the dc jack.
This asus eee pc that came onto my shop had a physically broken power port and the small center pin inside the jack was gone.
It uses a very small five pin dc jack that's soldered onto the motherboard.
Once the power jack is replaced the laptop works great!
