Battery and power

Original Sony batteries for the Vaio SVE1513E9EB 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 SVE1513E9EB 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.

Getting your old files back

Many Vaio SVE1513E9EB owners come to us for one reason: the photos, documents and emails still on the drive. Even if the laptop won't start, the drive can usually be read on our bench, and we copy everything to a USB stick, external drive or your new computer.

Is it worth repairing?

Is it worth repairing a Vaio SVE1513E9EB? Often yes for a battery, SSD or DC jack. For bigger faults we'll compare the cost with a replacement laptop and, either way, make sure your files are safe.
