This guide will show you how to replace the motherboard in an HP 14-dq0052dx laptop. It could be the charging port that is broken, and with that the motherboard needs to be replaced since the charging port is soldered to it. If you know how to solder then the best course of action is to try to replace the charging port, but if you're not then replacing the motherboard is the best option after that. There will be some wires that need to be removed so be very careful with removing them or you might damage your laptop further.
