The adapter is an external power supply for a laptop, monitor or other equipment. This device is used to charge the battery or directly power the device. In some cases, in the event of a breakdown, it becomes necessary to disassemble the adapter.
It is necessary
- - towel;
- - a hammer;
- - scalpel.
Instructions
Step 1
Take a soft towel and wrap the adapter in it. Tap the seam gently with a hammer to release the adhesive. The blows should be sharp and strong enough, but without undue zeal, so as not to accidentally damage the body itself. Experimentally determine the force at which the seam will begin to diverge. Then open the case.
Step 2
Open the case with a scalpel if you are afraid to knock on the adapter with a hammer. However, this could damage the surface of the case with cuts, scrapes and splits, and if you overdo it, the board itself could be damaged. In the case of a towel and a hammer, the device will remain unharmed. The scalpel can only be used if the adapter body is glued firmly enough or has a special fastening method.
Step 3
Heat the thinnest and narrowest screwdriver or scalpel and place it on the seam of the adapter body. Press it until you hear a characteristic click. Slide the screwdriver along the seam until you fully open the case. It must be remembered that in some places there are special latches that will need to be opened with pressure. If the case is severely damaged when disassembling the adapter, then it can be reassembled with epoxy resin, which will also replace the parts that have fallen off.
Step 4
Check the connected wires for the cause of a fault or short. If there was a breakdown in them, then carefully solder the disconnected elements and wrap with electrical tape to prevent re-shorting. If you have a spare wire, you can cut the faulty one and attach a new one. In this case, it is necessary to unsolder the connectors.
Step 5
Assemble the device back and check its functionality. If the adapter does not function now, the problem may be in the burned-out elements of the board. In this case, you need to purchase a new device to recharge the equipment.
