Dell Inspiron 17R, N7010, P08E DC Power Jack Repair

The Dell Inspiron 17R N7010 is the 17" version of the common N5010 laptops we work on with the power jack problems.  These N5010 is a soldered on dc plug and the N7010 is a cable style dc jack that plugs directly into the motherboard.  We perform the replacement of the damaged power jack for $65 parts and labor.
This N7010 had a physically broken input and needed replacement.  The notebook needs to be completely taken apart to the motherboard to access and replace the broken plug.  It's held in by a plastic housing built into the bottom casing of the laptop and also held in by a single screw.  Once replaced, the laptop powers and on and has a brand new internal dc connection.

I know your expertise on this. I must say we should have an online discussion on this. Writing only comments will close the discussion straight away! And will restrict the benefits from this information. cpghk
