It is not clear to me, why i have Voltage drop on pq51 from 19.18V to 18,89V, and i have tried to change pq52 whit a New one and the same problem, 8.3V on output. Those two mosfet should be there for passing full 19.18V if they get signal on pin 4 (gate). Am i right?
Here is what i would like to do, i would like to jump pq52 so i have 19V, 5V and 3.3V and also make jumper on PQ54 like on pictures so i have DCIN on pu17

PQ51 Drain need a Gate pass from pin 4 to by pass 19V to Source if 19V gets drop in Source 18,89V (pin1.2.3) that means your Gate is not active it should be less than 10V
The gates of PQ51/52 aren't being driven low because the gates of PQ59 and PQ63 aren't being driven high.
This is due to pin 1 of PU18A being low @ 0.03v. This pin should be around 4.3v as pin 3 is greater than pin 2.
I'm a bit long in the tooth now so maybe my theory isn't right but I would be checking for a s/c PD1 or replacing PU18.
Ok, here is follow up on my problem. I found that PR296 resistor is not 10k but 80k, after replacing it i finaly have 19V on PQ52 and 19V, 5V and 3.3V powers rails . But that would be to easy, now i have new problem.
When i power it up with battery it gives me charging light, but after some time screen gets dots and start download flicker, white line appears. It all disappears when i pull put the charger.
If i start the laptop on charger only i get strange white Linea on top and black on the bottom od the screen.
Thanks you all for your help, you have help me a lot, and gided me in right direction. If you have any ideas on new problem please tell me.
PR296 which is connected to pin 1 of PU18A ?
I'm surprised that it going to 80k alone would account for such a low on pin 1 though. What voltage do you have there now?
Would help also if you could take and post hi-res pictures of the board where the liquid damage has occurred.
Now on Pin1 i have 3.14V. I am sorry to say, but someone has clean the motherboard and i can't also see where was the damage, i only see a bit on vent...
Here are the pictures, they were taken with cellphone...
I was looking at the board and i think i found something (look at the pictures). Mosfet is not shorted to the ground but i think it is not good. And it is on VGA rail so maybe that is my problem with screen
You're barking up the wrong tree Frenk7. According to post #28 your problem is only present when both the charger and battery are connected or charger alone. If everything is fine with only the battery connected then all circuitry after ac/dc switching is ok.
It appears you still have a power problem.
My OpenBoardView won't open your board file for some reason which would make life a little easier but I'll take a look at the circuit again shortly and see if I can help at all.
I think it is a graphic issue, i don't know if it was like this before, but now when i start the laptop i get white screen (see the 1. photo) and then normalno screen telling me i have no hard drive and the picture stays normal, if i plug in the charger that weird issue starts (see other photos)
Is it the original adapter and have you got another one you could try? Just wondering if you are perhaps getting excessive ripple.
Did you have any problems identifying PR296 when you replaced it? Your boardview appears to be a mirror image of your actual board.
Yes, boardview is mirror image, but on boardviewer software on view, you can flip board. The problem was that pq77 mosfet, i replaced it and now laptop is working fine.
Thanks for your help!
