Power Jack Pin or Socket The laptop will not charge the battery. When
the battery power runs out the computer stops working. We repair power sockets where the power pin has broken or has become
disconnected from the motherboard. In some cases the power connector
makes a poor connection with the Vaio Vgn-ar41e Vgn-ar31s Ar51mr jack. This causes arcing
which can generate enough heat to melt the Vaio Vgn-ar41e Vgn-ar31s Ar51mr dc jack and the
power pin may become lose. It is best to get the Sony power socket repair before the battery is totally depleted as this can cause permanent
damage to the battery.
