Keyboard, hinges and casing
Worn keys, a cracked hinge cover or a lid that no longer stays upright are typical on a Vaio SVE1512N1ESI of this age. We source compatible keyboards and hinges and repair broken hinge mounts in the base.
Battery and power
Original Sony batteries for the Vaio SVE1512N1ESI are no longer made, so we fit good-quality compatible batteries where you want the laptop to run unplugged. If it won't charge at all, the DC jack or the charging circuit on the motherboard is often the cause, and both can be repaired.
Screen and backlight faults
A dim, flickering or dark screen on the Vaio SVE1512N1ESI isn't always a dead panel. On older Vaios the backlight (CCFL tube and inverter on earlier models, LED on later ones) or the display cable is a common culprit, and we test those before suggesting a new screen.
Is it worth repairing?
Because Sony stopped making Vaio laptops in 2014, parts for the Vaio SVE1512N1ESI come from compatible suppliers or good used stock. Our free diagnostic tells you exactly what's wrong and whether it's worth fixing.
