Kindle Fire HD 8.9" Charging Assembly

Sorunum

Kindle wasn't charging so talked to grandson who does repair work on phone, computers, Kindles, etc. He asked me questions and was immediately able to identify the problem, sent me information about ordering the part on your website.

Grandson is visiting me this weekend and will fix it.

Don't throw devices away. There are people who can diagnose and repair them for a fraction of the cost.

My Kindle wouldn't charge. This meant I couldn't read. At just the thought of it I went through withdrawal. I called the company my warranty had just run out. I could buy another (only updated versions available) for $400

I couldn't get it open at first. I kept trying. I eventually did. From there I discovered that I needed particular screwdrivers. I got those for $6.50 (wish you had sold that with it) after that it was cake just like done in your step by step guide. Thanks.

Get all the tool first, particularly magnetic screwdrivers and make certain that everything is connected back securely before closing up.

Kindle would not charge.

If you replace the complete charging assembly it is a straightforward repair (no soldering just unplug the old and plug in the new) .

My only problem was that I needed to open the kindle up again as I hadn't reconnected the screen properly (It came undone during the repair). After I did that it worked perfectly.

Just be patient and methodical and use a magnifying glass.
