Sony PCG-FX301 Power Adapter
When purchasing a replacement adapter, choosing the Sony brand one will probably be the safest way to go. Because Sony has been known to use a single AC adapter that powers multiple other machines, make sure you check the part number for the correct one. A universal AC adapter is another possibility if you absolutely need to. The Sony PCG-FX301 power adapter is needed for two reasons, to charge up the main battery and powering the laptop. If you decide to buy an non-Sony adapter, make note of both the voltage and amperage output.
What happens when my Sony power adapter has to be replaced?
- Most Sony AC adapters will get very warm to the touch when they are plugged in for a period of time
- The unit will not function while just using AC power
- Battery does not charge all the time
