Hi, someone gave me a small laptop to repair and the power adapter failed. I have an adapter I was not using and clipped the connector of the failed adapter and clipped the connector off the good power adapter to splice the good power adapter to the correct connector but see now(lol not really) that the insides of the cables are not identical and my inexperience has now been revealed - which wire should connect to which?
The photo shows the 2 different adapters and the insides of the two cables.
I hope you can see the image hosted in Microsoft One Drive.
I have now guessed the White Wire which is the centre wire in the Compaq adapter cable may be the +ve wire because the Centre Pin in the Compaq Connector is +ve and the Centre and Outer wires are written on the Compaq Power Adapter label, and the Red Wire may be the +ve on the Compatibile power adapter, but just want to be sure.
Here is the link cut up because the IMG link appears to be not working...(one space) htt p://1drv.ms/1yzk2CA
