My ac adapter cord got caught on my leg and it was pulled out of my sony laptop by accident. This must have bent something inside my laptop connection b/c the ac adapter will no longer fit in the connection. I would like to see a close-up of what it should look like inside so I can tell if I can fix it or if I need to replace it. I have a Sony model VGN-FS640W (PCG-7A2L)

Help please...

Thanks!
Carmen

You can download a manual for your Sony laptop at this link:

You may be lucky but I doubt that a close-up of the damaged connector will do you much good.

The likely repair of this component would require advanced skills in microelectronic soldering at the very least. Some of the soldered joints are most likely directly onto the laptop motherboard.

Usual repair is replacement of the motherboard.

Good luck.
