Acer Aspire 8920g gone dead after dc jack replacement
I have made dc jack replacement many times in the past with no problem, as this is a simple repair.
Anyway, this time i had a bad day with an acer 8920g with bad dc jack which have stripped negative pin. Before jack replacement the laptop powers up normally, but had the symptoms of random reboots (i suppose due NEC/TOKIN cap).
I start the dc jack replacement. I disassemble only the requirement parts to change the jack, soldered the new jack, re screw jack in place and made a test power up without battery(as it is almost dead). when i connected psu i noticed a small spark at jack...
