This guide will show you how to remove the charging port on the 13 inch Lenovo Yoga 900 (900-13ISK). Luckily, this component is completely modular, so you can replace it without sourcing a new motherboard or daughterboard. If your computer does not charge, or if your computer fails to turn on and you have already ruled out a faulty battery as the cause, replacing the charging port should fix the issue.
Be sure to unplug and completely turn off your device before you start working.
