MainGear ( Dell) P151EM1 Dc Jack Replacement | Repair

This was a Drop off repair, the customer had issues with his charger shutting off and the keyboard was not working.
After taking the Whole Gaming Rig apart I found that the main Center Pin to the Circuit board was was cold solder burnt
meaning that the main 19 volt center pin was not 100% connected creating a arc type of connection, so i de-soldered  the old dc power
jack as it was loose and worn out, I installed a new DC Jack and also ran a Separate wire from the Back of the DC Power Jack to the main
fuse so there will never be an issue of power not getting to the motherboard! I also cleaned the entire unit and used chemwash to clean the keyboard
as the CRTL key was not working, now this laptop charges to 100% and the charger does not shut off anymore!

Dell Inspiron 15R-5537 DC Jack Replacement | Repair

This was a contract Job from
one of my favorite computer shops.

In most cases this would have been an easy repair, but the Dell was Fighting back! After replacing the DC Jack I went to plug in the Connector and the Female Connector just fell off the circuit board, so I have to get out my solder paste and re-solder that top the board. Also the top palmrest female nut insert was snapped off from normal wear and tear near the DC Jack Area, I first tried re gluing the insert, but soon as i went to put in the screw it popped out. So i opened my secret epoxy gun and epoxied the entire left side corner palmrest to the case, Now the DC Jack area is solid as a rock! and there will be one happy customer! The Dell now Charges up to 100% and all functions work correctly.
