Asus A53E/S AC DC Power Jack Repair

The Asus A53E/S laptops are very common ones we work on and do fall under the $69 parts and labor rate to replace/fix the internal power jack.

Common symptoms for this model are being able to hold the tip of the power cord in just the right way to get it to charge and or power on.  Usually this gets worse with time and if you do it to much or to hard it can damage the motherboard.  Sometimes the center pin comes right out of the power plug.  This is usually cause by excessive force or a fall.

The Asus A53 series notebooks need to be completely taken apart to the motherboard to access the soldered on dc jack.  Some repair centers and even Asus themselves will tell you the entire motherboard needs to be replaced and this isn’t true.  The cost of a motherboard replacement is also around the value of the laptop so it makes no sense.

The A53 uses a five pin, 2.5mm dc jack that’s soldered directly onto the motherboard.  This means the old jack needs to be de-soldered and a new one soldered on.  This is no easy task and you shouldn’t attempt this repair unless you have the proper skills and a very good soldering iron.   Below is a video of Pomeroy Computing taking apart an A53 and getting it ready for the dc jack replacement.
