2 My charger is loose in the ports on the left side
My problem is my charger is loose in the ports on the left side of my Lenovo Yoga so the laptop cannot be charged. I have had the same experience as some of the writers - the charging light comes on for a nano-second if I jiggle the cord just right, but then shuts down. Now the computer won't even come on because its totally out of juice. I also replaced my charger more than once thinking it was an issue with the charger. It is not. Geek Squad tells me I'd have to sent the laptop in for technicians to replace the charging ports, and they might have to replace the entire mother board. This cannot be a battery issue, can it? Thanks. (Incidentally, the same thing is happening to my son's ThinkPad. We are not happy. These machines are expensive. My Yoga is only 1.5 years old.
Esta é uma boa pergunta?

Hi,
Please confirm the full model number of the laptop? Just asking as the model you selected is a lot older than 1.5 years
It doesn't sound like a battery issue as jiggling the power cord seems to be the clue.

Hi Cynthia,
I've outlined what you need to do to replace the charging port yourself down below in my answer, but I wanted to suggest that if you would like to see if your son's ThinkPad can be similarly fixed, you should post another question under the device page for his laptop and we'll see if we can't get that one fixed up too.
