How do i replace charger port for tablet? I have taken tablet apart and determined port damaged. Grandchildren playing on tablet while it was charging. Need instructions on replacement. Can order part from Walmart.
If you’re comfortable with a soldering iron you can attempt to replace the charging port yourself, but judging from this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P0FhFsah… it doesn’t look like it’s just a case of removing the old one and sticking a new one in since it’s soldered to the main logic board.
Hi, Here’s a video that shows how to disassemble a LG G Pad 8.3 V500 (if this is your model variant, you didn’t specify). It is useful because at 5:35 minutes into the video the charge port flex cable (supplier example only) can be seen being removed from the tablet. The charge port is part of the flex cable module There are other suppliers of the part online. Just search for Charging Port Connector Dock Flex Cable For LG G Pad 8.3 (insert model number e.g. V500 or VK810 etc)
