Hover 1 Eclipse Charging Port Replacement

Introduction

This guide will show you how to replace the charging port for your Hover-1 Eclipse. The charging port is where the charging cable plugs into the board. You may need to replace the charging port if your hover board is not charging correctly and the charging cable has already been replaced and/or ruled out as the root of the issue. In order to carry out this replacement, a knowledge of screwdriver usage and unplugging cords is needed.
