Sony PCG-FXA48 Power Adapter
Upon choosing a replacement AC adapter, the actual Sony brand is usually going to be the safest choice. Because Sony uses one power charger that is most likely used on other laptop models, be certain to thoroughly note the part number that is needed for this model. A universal AC adapter is a possibility if you absolutely need to. If your decision is to purchase a different brand charger, please check on both the volts and amps outputs. The Sony PCG-FXA48 power adapter is responsible for two things, to charge any and all batteries and to provide a source of power for the unit.
How do you know if your AC adapter needs to be replaced?
- Battery does not charge all the time
- Most Sony AC adapters will get warm to the touch when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
- The laptop does not run while just using AC power
