Does your Nook Simple Touch with GlowLight no longer charge? Or charge much more slowly than it used to? You may need to replace the charging port.

Before using this guide make sure you check out our trouble shooting page to rule out other issues like the battery.

The charging port is soldered to the motherboard, so it would be easiest to replace the entire motherboard if you have a faulty charging port. However, it is possible to replace the charging port and keep the same motherboard. The following steps will explain how.

Never work on a device that is plugged into a power outlet. Before starting this guide, ensure that the Nook is powered off and the power adapter is disconnected.
