I have tried several different charging wires but my almost new kindle won’t charge. Can this be repaired?
What’s the amperage of the base you are using? Many cheaper charging bases, especially ones bundles with phones and smartwatches only supply 250-500mA, but tablets and other large devices may require 1-2A (1000-2000mA) to charge properly.
Does the cable wiggle up and down when plugged in? Charging port failure is very common for Kindles. The replacement process unfortunately isn’t easy either. If you do not have the tools or experience I recommend taking it to a local repair shop that supports soldered charging port repairs.
