    Dell 172FPb

    I have the same old problem, ie flashing green light. I have replaced Q759 & Q760 which have both shorted once again after a very short while, as seems to be the norm.
    I see that there are multiple posts on this same fault, so! has anybody out there achieved a PERMANENT repair. The fault is obviously not the transistors. Has anybody tried interchanging transformers to see if the fault moves, and what is this FU90224N about? How does it come into the picture, and where is it anyway?
    Has nobody received any response from either Dell or Benq. This is obviously a design fault with so many units packing a sad!!

      Dell E6400 PT434 type Battery Charging Stuck at 1%. Battery Pinouts?
      by Bowline
      My question pertains to understanding the control circuity inside a Dell PT434 type battery used in Dell E6400, E6410 and other Dell notebooks?

      Does anyone have a circuit diagram for the inside of a Dell PT434 battery and/or a description of how the control lines work to control this battery?

      My reason for asking is I have a battery which I cannot get to charge beyond 1% in a Dell E6410 or E6400.
      The LED bar graph charge indicator on the battery shows one LED lighted when the info button is pressed.
      I have tried multiple different Dell power adapters. My Dell...

      I would like to share my experience about charging issues with Dell power supplies with the tech community. I am working on a Dell Inspiron 5590, Mainboard 18778-1 with charging problems. The device can be switched on and works so far, only the message appears at startup:

      by F R 2568
      Hello all,

      this is my first post, so if I make mistakes please do not hesitate to point them out, thank you in advance.

      I got a Dell Latitude 5420 (Service Tag: 7RFM6D3, Motherboard: GDF40 LA-491P Rev.: 2.0 (A01)) which does not start and I want to repair it. These are the symptoms:

      The power/battery...

      Looking for Dell Latitude 5520 / 5530 / 5540 RJ45 network connector replacement
      by diamon
      I have a Dell Latitude 5530 with a damaged RJ45 network connector. See the attached pictures.

      Have already searched on Farnell / Aliexpress / Ebay and had contact with several suppliers on Aliexpress and Ebay, but they cannot deliver this connector.
      Is there someone inside the EU, who has these connector(s) or perhaps defective motherboard(s) for these laptop models I have mentioned in the topic title.
