If your laptop charger cable has suddenly stopped working it is likely the result of a short in the wire. If you have some extra time on your hands, you can find this short and try to repair the cable yourself. You’ll save money by not buying a whole new charger cable and the process doesn’t require very much knowledge of electronics.

Turn on your notebook computer and plug the adapter cord into the port on the computer.

Run your finger along the length of the Samsung laptop adapter cable, pinching it as you go. When the LED light at the end of the adapter flashes on and off you have found the short in the wire.

Use the stripper portion at the top of your wire cutters to strip about an inch of sheath off of the cable where the short is. Be careful to only strip the sheath and not the wire.

Twist the frayed ends of the wires together to reestablish the connection.

Wrap electrical tape around the gap in the sheath, being sure to cover the gap completely.
