Laptop Charger Repair?

Post by Dike Muff » Fri Oct 12, 2018 1:15 pm

The jack plug on the end of the charger for my MacBook has frayed off. I was wondering if there was anywhere in the Burnley area where this could be repaired, as to replace the whole thing is a tad expensive.
I thought about Sound Service, but am told that they are no longer open.
Any other recommendations out there in UTCland?
TIA.

I successfully repaired my Macbook charger cable after watching a few youtube videos on the subject. It's a bit of a faff but if you've got the tools you'll be able to extend the life of your charger quite a bit.
