For the past year, my laptop isnt able to charge, I have tried replacing the charger and that didnt help, I suspect that my DC plug is failing. It will only charge with a specific angle, and recently it stopped working. how do I fix it?

If it only charges when the plug is held at a certain angle, it’s most likely a loose or damaged DC charging jack (or the connection on the motherboard). Since you already tried a different charger, replacing the jack is probably the next step.

You can try cleaning the port and checking for dust or bent pins, but if the connection is physically loose, it usually needs a repair (jack replacement or motherboard soldering). Avoid using it at an angle for too long because it can make the damage worse.

Before taking it for repair, you can also check your battery health with a tool like Advanced System Optimizer and others, to rule out battery-related issues, but the charging port sounds like the main problem here.
