Sony PCG-FX401 Power Adapter
Because Sony uses one power charger that can be used on other units, be certain you select the correct one for the PCG-FX401 model. The Sony PCG-FX401 power adapter is needed for two reasons, charging the battery and powering the laptop. If your decision is to purchase a different brand charger, it is imperative to note both the volts and amps outputs. When choosing a new AC adapter, choosing the Sony brand one is usually going to be the safest choice. A universal power adapter can be used if yours is unavailable or backordered.
What are some indications that my charger is in need of replacing?
- Most Sony adapters will get very warm to the touch when they are plugged in for a period of time
- Battery does not charge up at all
- The laptop does not work without the battery installed
