Fix loose charging port
Hello,

You will need to take the laptop to a qualified service shop to have it repaired. Usually, the charging port is held onto the mainboard by small solder connections. If the charging port is loose, then these solders have likely been broken. You can try to fix it yourself, but you wil have to disassemble the laptop and re-solder the charging port back in place. If you are not comfortable doing this yourself, then you should take it to a service shop for repair.

Hope this helps!

Your DC jack may be loose or broken off the system board.


Symptoms of a broken power jack
1. If you wiggle the power cord or the AC Adapter connector on the back of the laptop, the power LED and battery charge LED start to flicker.
2. Battery will not charge in the laptop.
3. Laptop runs fine off a charged battery.
4. With the AC Adapter connected the laptop appears to be dead.
No power LED or battery charge LED activity.
5. Laptop randomly powers off without any warning.

If your laptop is out of warranty, then you can fix the problem by re-soldering DC-IN jack on the system board. If it's still under warranty, it would be fixed at no charge to you.


If I could be of further assistance, let me know. If this helps or solves the issue, please rate it and give a testimonial for my response

Seems that the power receptacle in thelaptop itself is either damaged, or its solder points on the motherboard has gone loose. You will need to fully disassemble the laptop in order to get access to the motherboard & replace or re-solder the power receptacle.

DC Jack diagnosis:
1. Test power adapter for output voltage. Bend the power cable in various directions while doing this to be sure that there is no broken conductors in the cable.
2. If power adapter is Ok, connect it & see if the power LED on the laptop will glow when you jiggle the power connector in various directions. If yes, then the DC jack might be loose or damaged, & need to be either re-soldered or replaced.
3. If not, then disassemble the laptop. Remove any components that attach to the laptop's motherboard first (e.g. battery, hard drive, RAM, wireless card, optical drive, ... etc.)
4. Next, remove the keyboard & the LCD screen.
5. Finally, unscrew all screws that hold the upper cover & lower cover together so that you could gain access to the motherboard.
6. Inspect the solder points connecting the DC jack to the motherboard. Make sure that none of them is loose. If any, re-solder them.
7. Inspect the center pin in the DC jack. Make sure that it is not broken or loose. If it is, then you might need to replace the DC jack.
8. When you are done, re-assemble back the laptop.

Dc power connector seems loose. laptop wont charge. Looking to see if there is a schematic or disassembly guide out there somewhere.
The Power Jack's soldering might have gone loose, that makes this problem. Try contacting near by toshiba service center, and place a repair order and get it fix.

Loose UHF connector
That connector is just press-fit into a metal shield around the set's tuner. It's commonly broken loose by overtightening the cable connection or tripping over the cable and yanking on it. In bad cases it can be broken completely off the set. It really doesn't "leak" anything but can cause a poor picture and allow interference to get in.

The connector can be soldered back into place with the aid of a suitable-size soldering gun. You should be able to find a TV servicer who still makes house calls. With labor and trip charge, I'd guesstimate around $100. The shop I worked for got $72 for this repair, and that was nearly 10 years ago. It is also possible for do-it-yourselfers to make this repair if they have the soldering skills. But even if you pay someone it's still less than the cost of a new set.
