    Thank you so much for this video. I cannot tolerate any thing happen to my laptop. And as i encountered this issue, i got so much tense. I was trying out every possible thing. After trying everything, i lost hope and was going back to sleep. Just then, i watched your video and decided to give it a last try and it worked like a charm. I cannot express my happiness. Really really thank you. Bless you.

    As far as I know, this can also be caused by the mounting tabs for the power jack breaking off on the inside (and thus the "sense" pin failing to make contact), which was a very annoying issue on my Inspiron 11 (2015-2017 models).

    My adapters are Dell OEM units that work fine on other Dell laptops. Finally used an old PRO3X E-dock which bypasses the AC jacks on my 2 bad laptops (E7250 and E7450), and they now charge and run faster. BIOS also indicates correct wattage. The E-dock works with all Dell E-serries laptops. Note: The dock requires a 90W adapter to operate.

    Thanks for this video......I was able to fix my Dell laptop so it will charge again. I used a generic brand Q-tip to fix mine......one with a stiff stick....Cut off one soft end and shave/cut the stick so it is small enough to do the job if your power jack is very small like mine was. I am not sure I will buy another Dell though because of this feature. This is the second Dell I have had this problem with.

I just bought this power supply used and assumed it was not the right one when it didn't plug in all the way. In the end, that stupid pin was just bent. BTW I used a thumbtack point to fix mine.
