I have to wiggle the charger connector in the laptop charge port to make a connection. This problem is slowly getting worse. Can this be repaired/adjusted or does the connector have to be replaced? Hal

Hi, sometimes you have to just resolder the DC jack on the motherboard without a new one, but you have to open the laptop to see if your DC jack is damaged. What model of Acer do you have?
The port will probably have to be replaced. Depending on your device, it may allow for changing the port alone, or, it may require the motherboard be changed as well.

If the device is still under warranty, I would suggest contacting the manufacturer about a repair or replacement.

If it isn't under warranty, you are free to do the work yourself, or have someone else do it.
