    The USB-C port used for charging is soldered in on the motherboard. You either need a technician with decent surface mount soldering skills or a replacement motherboard.

    I can replace parts since I have the soldering equipement but can't find where to buy the exact charging port since there are several models of chromebook.

    You can try to take that port out and look it up. Searching with the model name is hard to find.
    Please remember to include @AnhEZ28 when you want to reply back to my comment so that I can check your response.
    Thank you and have a nice day!

    Yes, you will have to inspect the port and measure it, then look for the component that fits. We have no access to part number for them.
