Power Supply for notebook

[tuffythedog]

Just wondering if anyone else is having problems with thier power supply ? The input jack seems to sit very loosley in the socket and on occation when I go to move the laptop it will fall out, cutting off the supply. If anyone has had this problem have you found a solution. cheers.

There is a spring connector on the outside of the socket. I 'adjusted' one of mine with a bent paper clip to provide a little more pressure on the plug. If you do it, be careful though as you could possibly damage it.

If you're in your warranty period have it fixed.

Good point - unless they class it as fair wear & tear.

You would expect this part of a laptop to be able to stand a great deal of wear and tear!

It is pretty esential to the functioning of it! :smileygrin:

But then again, who knows as far as Sony are concerned!

Must admit that if mine had still been under warranty then I'd have argued until they agreed that it was a design fault with the computer :smileygrin:

I would tell them it's got nothing to do with wear and tear and it needs replacing asap.

Thanks for the advice all. It still keeps falling out but now I just keep the battery in just in case.
