You have a break on the razor side of the charge base. Most likely a cracked solder. . But it could also be a worn plug... any case pushing on it will only increase the problem
Many corded razors have a 110 cord that will fit. The Zx4 has a keyed receptacle. Depending on the cord you find (I used a Remington), you may have to whittle off the tang on the inside of the Zx4 power port. My Zx4 seems to be sensitive to polarity, it will not charge if the cord is plugged in backward. So when you get it to charge, mark the Zx4 case & new cord so you know which way to plug it in every time.
I have the same razor. If it has been sitting too long the internal nicad batteries may not accept a charge and this razor does require the internal battery to not be totaly dead even using with the power cord. Try leaving the unit plugged in for a week or so and see if it "wakes" up. It it is supposed to automatically charge when plugged in (leave the switch in the "off" position). Mine did eventually wake up and I got another few months useage out of it. The internal two cell nicad batteries are soldered to the circuit board inside and are NOT easy to replace. I happen to like the design of this razor to prevent ingrown hairs and Remington does not seem to have anything like it for sale anymore. This model has been discontinued as well as replacement blades.
