Problem for PC Laptops

Generic problem for all PC Laptops

Acer Aspire 3690 Laptop is dead

By theoldark5 on Jun 20, 2009

" "

My laptop will not start up, I have owned it for over 2 years upgraded memory when I first bought it an have not added anything new to it recently. No power indicator Lights, no fan spin up. Ive tried unplugging the power supply, removing the battery an holding the start button for 30 seconds an then plugging in the power supply to reset it, but to no avail. The power supply is functional (19.4 VDC) checked with a multimeter.

Hello,

You may have a broken power jack in the laptop. Inspect the power jack and see if the center pin moves at all. It should be fairly solid. If you find a bad jack your local repair shop may be able to repair it or you can get a jack from Ebay and solder it yourself.

I hope this helps,
Buddy
