So I went to my friends place last night, aaaaaaannnnnnnnddddd, WE FIXED MY CHARGER!
So we went with that tutorial I found and yah... it worked like a charm!
I'll show you my photos that I took on my phone (I forgot my camera at home) so you can get an idea of what to expect should this happen to you...
First we split the casing (broke it apart with a screwdriver)

Then my friend (who, like I've said is an electrician) started testing stuff with his little play set... after a while he just cut a piece of cable off (I almost got a heart attack, he didnt tell me that he was going to cut it or why...)
So this was the little fucker piece of shit cable that my friend cut off (this is also the piece of cable that apparently had the problem in it)

After this drama we (he) put everything back together (not so much the casing, that is being held together with tape, will post a picture tomorrow) and we tested it..
Here is a nice picture of the working but frankenstein looking charger...

And the part that made me the happiest...

Seeing the little light go on again! :)
so all in all... Thank you to the person who took the time to make and publish the tutorial on the internet. The internet for allowing me to find the tutorial and last but not least, my friend johan for doing all the work while I enjoyed a drink.
Here he is... (notice that he still has his work clothes on!)

I must apologise for the shite quality of the photos... I only had my iphone with me... no camera... I know its not an excuse but bleh... thats the reason at least...
I'm so happy that my baby is alive again... even though it will be with a semi permanent plaster... :)
