    The monitor. Remember that the hot ground - the negative side of the bridge rectifier, the negative lead of the large cap, and the ground pin of the SMPS controller swings from -165 volts to 0 volts 60 times a second. Adjusting the sweep and sensitivity switches while the scope frame is swinging down to -165 volts would be uncomfortable - but educational.

    For a number of reasons, both health and personal, I will no longer be active on this board. Any PMs asking for assistance will be ignored.

    Never be afraid to try something new. Remember, amateurs built the ark. Professionals built the Titanic.

      Lenovo 14ALC6 - NMD521 - No power, totally dead.

      Machine won't power on, no power led, no fan spin, completely dead.

      Checked PQ5400 - AONS32314 and pins 5,6,7,8 are 20v (AC adaptor voltage) but pins 1, 2, 3, 4 are 0v.

      Following Gate Pin 4 to PU5400 - BQ24780SRUYR.

      VCC 20v
      ACDET 2.8v
      ACDRV 0v (goes to pin 4 gate of AONS32314).
      ACOK 0v
      REGN 6v

      According to datasheet, conditions are correct for ACOK to be high but it is not.

      Tracing ACOK it's connected to ACIN which is connected to a pin GPB0 of IT8227 but also shown as connected to +3VL via a 100k resistor...

      Lenovo yoga 3 pro, totally dead
      by pixellegolas
      Hi!

      I have this laptop and first let's go through what happened

      Went totally dead, no reaction
      I thought it was the adapter so I bought a new one = nothing happened
      Opened up the laptop and adjusted the battery cable = Started working
      Worked a couple of days and then went totally dead again

      Now nothing works

      I have opened the laptop, removed basically all removable components. It does not start without the battery or harddrive or anything disconnected.

      Testing with voltmeter I can see 5.3V basically...

      How can I be sure that my EC chip is dead?
      by double_DD
      Hi all,

      As the title suggests, how can I be sure that my EC chip is really dead?

      I've recently gotten into this hobby of laptop repairs, and have successfully brought back to life a couple with some easy fixes, mostly shorted caps.

      Now I'm working on HP Probook 455 G8, that had some "devil" run around on 3V line, burning a bunch of stuff. Luckily I have a dead 455G7 (for spare parts) so I managed to fix it (swapped burned parts) to a point that it will charge (both on barrel jack and usb-c), but it doesn't want to turn on. There is a 3V3 on a keyboard...
