Acer Aspire 5332 DC Jack Repair


This Acer 5332 came in with a physically broken dc jack. It was pushed in to the side and obviously damaged. Unfortunately an individual attempted to solder the jack area and failed. It's to bad because usually this just hinders me from doing the best job I can on these solder repairs.
The Aspire 5332 uses a five pin, 1.65 mm dc jack that's soldered directly to the motherboard. The laptop needs to be completely taken apart to access the dc jack so the proper skills and tools are needed for a good repair job.
Once replaced the notebook powers on and charges the battery again!
