Charging issue with R52

Hi Everyone,

I have a Lenovo question I was hoping to get some input on. I have never worked on any Lenovo product before. We are a Dell and HP shop. Well my boss dropped off a R52 on my desk that belongs to a friend of his. Now I am not going to be able to bill any time against this so I am trying to avoid tearing this thing down.

It has a charging issue. The laptop has no power. The a/c adapter is fine; I checked it with my meter. The issue presents with both the original battery and the OEM replcement they purchased. The d/c jack on the laptop is not loose at all.

My question is, does the R52 have a seperate d/c jack that can be replaced like on some HP's and Toshiba's or is it built onto the systemboard? Like I said before, I can't bill time against this so I am firmly against tearing it down just to find out it's part of the systemboard.

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated. Thank you all in advance for your tiem and have a wonderful day!


Respectfully,

George D.

From what I see from the power jack part, it is mostly being soldered to the board, as to say that the power board is part of the mainboard.

Have you checked the battery? Tried with another power adaptor (I read that you tested it - still)?

cheers ...
