Thanks! Mark J,
Do not struggle to open the adapter, you will find Many articles on this blog where very simple tips are provided, but if you are not sure just cut the Adapter by joining middle line using mini Hacksaw, open the adapter do the work then rejoin it using Cable tie or the Glue.

Tayo,
This adapter is specially designed for the battery charging, when it charging the battery, the LED remains ON and when the battery is fully charged, the LED goes off. Here the customer was confused whether the adapter is turning ON or not as the LED was barely visible.

Albert,
I also looked for clear plastic/acrylic to extend the light beam, but couldn't find it in my junk box, so I ultimately just extended the LED.

Yogesh great job on the repair. Sometimes those adapters are hard to get open.

Fine solution. I would have done the same but Im confused about the LED's function / the customer's complaint. Does the LED stay lit 100% of the time when the adapter is connected to the mains? Or does it only light up when it's charging something? Im not sure why the customer would bother getting this repaired if, other then the LED not being visible, the adapter was functioning properly and providing power.

interesting repair. there should be some kind of glass extender to reflect the light so the user that see it but since there were none you created a successful modification to the device which is a job well done my friend. thanks for sharing and have a blessed day

Nice fix Yogesh, for a rather unexpected design flaw in this dc adapter. Where normally some sort of glass extender would have transfered the led light to the top of the case to close the gap.
