Default Repairing a laptop charger

Well, my first charger was broken down a short time ago and i bought a
new one but it's also broken now. when i plug it, it doesn't work but
when i shake it strongly then starts to work. I checked the power
cable but it's ok, i also opened it and controlled all the soldered
parts but no problem. Only a sizzling from condenser. Checking the web
found that there might be a problem with SRC or condenser, i tried to
solder anode and cathode of the SRC ( i thought no problem will
accure) but there was a small explotion
I checked the circuit there isn't much damage. What can i do now?

It would help if you gave us some information on the make and model of
the computer and the charger input AC voltage and output voltage - AC
or DC - and rated output current.

Nope, IME, the best place is from eBay. Buy an OEM replacement if the
computer is more than a year or two old. Search on the model number to
see the quantity available.

Watch out for low 'Buy It Now' price coupled with outrageous shipping.....
