I was having an issue with getting power to the main board on a HP laptop I have. I have stripped down to the mobo and found that the DC contacts were loose on the board and therefore causing my connection problems.
However another problem I face is that the end of the plug that meets the DC jack is getting VERY hot ! so much so that the plastic end can start to melt.
I think that it may be caused my the universal adapter that i am using as the end plug dont fit in the socket 100% and is fairly loose.
Could it be this that is causing the heat due to the arcing of electricity between the gap of the plug and socket ?
