I have hp pavilion 15xxxxxx i3 laptop. Its power jack was damaged. I replaced it. When I connected it with power, the light on the jack blinks one time then turned off. Every time I connect it with power, same thing happens. It is neither charging the batyery nor turning the laptop on. Can anyo e tell me what is the issue and how to solve.
Thanks.
