Why does my laptop charger only work in certain positions?

I'm having an issue with my Asus Zephyrus M15 (GU502LWS) laptop where it goes crazy whenever I move the charger. It seems like it has a different 'sweet spot' each day. Does anyone have an idea of what might be causing this?

It sounds like you might have a broken charge port. It's possible that the connection isn't solid anymore. You could also be dealing with a bad cable, so if your charger is USB-C, try swapping it out and see if the issue follows the cable or stays with the laptop.

Yeah, definitely check the cable first since that's usually an easier fix before diving into port replacements.

This could be an intermittent open circuit or even some shorts. Modern electronics aren't built to withstand a lot of wear, unfortunately. I'd suggest replacing the power cable right away, and if the issue keeps happening, you might need to replace the charge port too.
