This Toshiba Satellite L655 laptop came in with a very broken power plug. The laptop casing is also cracked so it looks like it took a fall or someone tripped over the ac adapter when it was plugged in. Most of the time we're still able to fix the dc input even though it's been physically damaged.
The L655 notebook needs to be completely taken apart to access the dc socket. It uses a cable style dc jack that plugs into the motherboard.
Once inside the plastic housing that holds the dc jack into place is broken along with the dc jack. We installed a brand new dc jack glued it into place with a special glue. It needs to dry for 24 hours but won't break again assuming the laptop isn't abused.
Despite the damage the dc jack was replaced and the laptop works great again!
