My tablet fell into a sink full of water. I may eventually have to replace the charging port. I appreciate your instructions. I think I can do it. I haven’t shopped yet for one. May I ask where one may find a replacement for the charging port? Also, is that the only part I would need? I am getting the message (approx. I can’t remember completely) “battery temperature too low, charging will take place when temperature…”. Thank you for any reply.

It’s definitely not this simple. You’ll need a precision hot air gun, flux, solder braid to help remove the old solder from the anchor holes, heat protection tape, solder, and a soldering iron. You’ll need to use the hot air gun with tape down to protect nearby components to remove the old port. Then use flux and braid to remove solder from the 4 holes. You’ll need to flux and apply new solder evenly and put then new port on. Make sure it is completely flat and then solder the anchors using a solder gun. Use the hot air gun again until all connections are good. Clean off the flux with some alcohol.
