We've identified another batch of similar Gateway laptop models with DC power jack repair issues. Power problems with these notebooks are the same as many of the other Gateways we've listed in another repair blog post. The DC connector (jack) breaks right at the intersection of the plastic housing on the back of the jack and the positive center pin coming through the back of the jack in about 85% of cases we see with intermittent power or no power in these models. Again, this is the same DC power jack used in most Gateway laptops and some other manufacturers such as Toshiba and HP. We replace this defective DC jack with a better DC jack made by a different manufacturer. This jack is the same size and pin configuration as the original power port, however the replacement jack it is not prone to be broken like the original jack. It will fit your AC adapter plug just the same as the original jack as well.
Here are some more model numbers of Gateway laptops with this particular jack:
3000 Series: MX3000, 3018GZ, 3040, 3040GZ, 3520, 3520GZ, 3522GZ, 3525GB, 3545GZ, 3550GZ, 3610GZ, MX3042, MX3044, MX3044h, MX3210, MX3212, MX3215, MX3225, MX3228, MX3558, MX3558h, MX3560, MX3560h, MX3560, MX3560h, MX3562, MX3563, MX3563h, MX3610
Other laptops: M210, M250, W322, W323, 7320, 7320GZ, M210, 7322, 7322GZ

England laptop DC power jack repair
We are starting to see many more laptops come in for our DC power jack repair service from the United Kingdom lately. Even in large cities such as London, there are not many service centers with technicians who will even touch a laptop with a broken or loose power socket.
Many people from England and other locations in the UK ask the same question: how expensive is it to ship my laptop to you for repair from Europe? Well, shipping your laptop for DC power connection repair is not nearly as expensive as most people would think. We use the US Postal Service for shipping to England, which usually costs less than $54 USD. Of course our DC power jack replacement itself is only $99 USD, making this fix a much more affordable option than having to replace the motherboard in your laptop. As always, we will replace the bad DC jack with a brand new power jack in your laptop and test it to make sure everything is working as it should.
If you are in need of DC jack / port repair for your laptop, just send us an email at info@comprehensivecomputing.net and we'll help you get your laptop shipped in for guaranteed professional and personal service.
