Lenovo g650 DC Adapter
Hello,
I was looking around online for instructions on how to replace a dc adapter on the lenovo g650. I wasn't able to come up with any results. Does anyone have any documentation on this? Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

G560?
You'll need an adaptor able to deliver 19V DC 4.74A (65W) The DC plug should be wired to have a positive pin-centre and the barrel is negative.
There are several generic replacements available through ebay.
I'm not sure Lenovo make a G650 but happy to be proved wrong :)

There are differing voltage, amperage, and plug sizes on various Lenovo adapters, so I always recommend the precise replacement part for safety and reliability. ... Thinkpads_User
As far a plug size goes it's a 12.2mm length barrel with an external diameter of 5.5mm and the internal pin socket diameter is 2.5mm :)
If it's a G560 ....

hi, now in the market there are a dc adapter called Universal adapter, you can use it, it has a switch where u can select the needed voltage.
to see what is ur needed voltage just turn your laptop upside down, and check the notes their .

I'm sorry guys, i might not have worded the question properly...I was looking for instructions on how to take the laptop apart to replace the adapter...
OK - so it's the adaptor's socket on the motherboard that needs attention?
Can you double-check the Thinkpad model reference?

For that, you need the model number and then go to the link I gave you. Put in the model number and then in the resulting support page, there will be a link there for the hardware maintenance manual (usually under publications). The HMM will tell you how to take the laptop apart and how to remove all FRU's (field replaceable units). ....Thinkpads_User

Those manuals didn't cover changing certain parts. Is there anywhere else that documentation might be?
Thank you.
