Sony VGN-SZ480E Power Adapter
The Sony VGN-SZ480E power adapter is responsible for two things, to charge any and all batteries while simultaneously providing power for the laptop. If buying off-brand, it is imperative to note the output of amps and voltage. A universal AC adapter can be used if yours is unavailable or backordered. When purchasing a replacement AC charger, the actual Sony brand is usually going to be the safest choice. Because Sony uses one power charger that powers multiple other machines, double-check the part number or model number of the adapter.
Hints your AC adapter is failing
- Battery does not charge whatsoever
- Most Sony AC adapters will get very warm to the touch when plugged in for any length of time
- The unit will not function while just using AC power
