MS Surface PRO 3 charging issues

Featured Replies

I've had a surface pro 3 for aproximately 2 years and from day 1 I noticed the charger seems to charge when it wants and the micro usb will sometimes sit idle in the charging port and say "plugged in not charging" I've had genuine cables and loads of other cables from all over and the problem persists and it's just very annoying.

 

Anyone got any idea about this it seems very bad and inconsistent. You plug a cable into a device all it has to do is charge and this is not the case and never has been? 

Happened to my Note 4.  Was pretty infamous for the usb jack to go out on that phone.  So a new screen, fresh frame and replacement usb jack was 4,000 baht or there about a year and a half ago.  Perhaps one of the traces on your usb jack has gotten loose and is making intermittent contact?  Not an easy repair on your 'puter.  

 

 

Haven't had a problem since.

 

I do know that I go through micro-usb cables like crazy.  Not like the wife's Apple Lightning cables where they obviously break, but just simply giving up the ghost.  Cheap ones, expensive ones, it doesn't seem to matter.  They just die.

Just a hint if you have not been down this road already.

If hardware is in good order, charging electronics are controlled by drivers which can become mismatched corrupt or unpredictable.
