The Asus G53 laptops are large gaming laptops and are very similar to the G73 series. I see a lot of these G53 and G73 laptops in for repair. We did atleast five of them in the month of March. Most commonly what I see is the missing center pin that breaks off inside the power cord tip.
It can be quite the task to disassemble a G53 or G73 and should only be done if you know what you're doing.
The notebook needs to be completely taken apart and the old power plug de-soldered from the motherboard. It uses a five pin dc jack that comes in 1.65mm and 2.5mm. The 2.5mm center pin is the more common of the two.
Once the power jack is replaced the laptop works like new again!
