Sony VPCF117FX Power Adapter
When purchasing a replacement AC adapter, the actual Sony brand will probably be the safest way to go. Due to the fact that one Sony adapter is most likely used on other laptop models, make sure you check the part number for the correct one. A universal AC adapter can be used if you are desperate. If buying off-brand, make sure to check both the volts and amps outputs. The Sony VPCF117FX power adapter is responsible for two things, to charge the onboard battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop.
Signs your laptop charger will need to be replaced
- The unit will not work without the battery installed
- Most Sony adapters can get quite warm when they are plugged in for a period of time
- Battery does not charge all the time
