FAQs – USB Port Repairs
Can you fix broken USB-C charging ports?
Yes — we repair charging-only and combo USB-C ports using high-quality replacements.
Do you replace the whole motherboard?
No — we only replace the port or the related module. Motherboard swaps are last resort.
What if the laptop has no working USB ports?
We can still diagnose via internal access and recover data if needed.
