1525 motherboard do you have one?

Hi @katweise ,

ifixit does not have a motherboard for a Dell Inspiron 1525.

Have you checked whether the DC-In jack is OK and that is not loose from the DC power board or is internally faulty?

Here’s a link to the ifixit Dell Inspiron 1525 DC Power Board Replacement guide.

This shows how to remove the board so that you can visually check if the DC-In jack is loose from the board or test the DC-In jack with an Ohmmeter to prove whether the jack is OK or not.

If it is just loose you’ll have to re-solder it back on.

If the jack is faulty, replacement boards are available online.

Here’s a link to just one supplier

It is shown only to give you an idea of the cost of the part. There may be other suppliers that suit you better. Just search for Dell 1525 DC power jack to get results.
