When I plug in the AC adaptor it is thoroughly dead, not even a blink. Power traces OK through the onboard fuse.
I soldered wires to the battery socket and can trick it into startup with a battery installed, then it will continue to run with a 12v power brick on the battery lines. I don't have a battery because it will go back to the customer.
I am planning to use this as an embedded type system or off of lead acid battery. I already put a replacement motherboard in the laptop for the customer.
Fuses check out OK, I am guessing this suffered some kind of surge because the laptop was given to me with a Targus power brick (correct 19v).
Just interested in finding the faulty component and bypassing it so it will run off the wall as a slimline PC.
I have the data sheet for the power IC, it is a TPS51123.
EDIT: After searching for C655 only I find this: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=21949 Maybe it will help.
