Power input broke - can it be replaced? Thanks.
My wife dropped her Chromebook while it was charging. It landed on the power cord connection portion. The tip of the cord bent pretty badly. I was able to bend it back into shape and was able to use it for a while. But yesterday some pieces broke off in the power input of the Chromebook.
I've had quite a few experiences replacing laptop parts. So I am not completely a novice.
My question is how would I go about replacing the power input? Is it one pieces or is it part of the motherboard?
Any help would be apreciated?
Es esta una buena pregunta?

We have resoldered the center pin and had that fixed it in some cases if that's what you are talking about. The wave soldering leaves the power connections a little sparse on solder and a little flux helps. We have so many and the motherboards are getting hard to find!

Hi John Davies,
Don't the Chromebooks that you service have the plug in DC-In connector socket as per the links in the Chosen Answer below then?
