    Ubiquiti Unifi U6 Lite Access Point POE power issue

    Hi,

    I bought a Unifi access point for cheap which has no power when connected to POE.

    If I insert 5V manually, the AP is starting and I can connect via the unifi app.

    When connected to POE the board is dead .

    There is a damage and a missing component/capacitor? [C8329], but I´m not sure if this is POE related:


    I already replaced the poe-controller (LM5071MT-80) but nothing changed.
    Need help to understand the POE input-circuit...

    Trace pin 1 on the LM5071MT backwards to the jack.

      Okay, will test.

      In the meantime I checked the AP with an ubiquity POE-Injector and it worked perfectly
      I suspect some handshake problem between the AP and my POE-switch...

      I only get 17.7 V on pin 1 when connected to the poe switch...

        Get a different POE switch and try again. it should negotiate to 48VDC. If you just put 24VDC in as an example, the U6 lite. Wont work. Pin 1 can do up to 80VDC! Only seeing 17.7 VDC sounds wrong to me.

          Hi, thank you.

          You´re right, the issue isn´t the access point, it is the POE-switch (Allied Telesis AT-GS950/10PS).

          There´s a burnt chip on the power-supply board. Unfortunately I can´t identify this chip

            Ubiquiti US-48-500W – No LAN Port LEDs, Possible 12V Issue?
            by Robin21
            Hi everyone,

            I’ve got a Ubiquiti switch (model US-48-500W, motherboard: USW48P_BCM) on my bench. The switch powers on, but none of the LEDs next to the LAN ports light up.

            I’ve measured voltages across the board and suspect a problem with the 12V rail. At the coils where I’d expect 12V, I’m seeing around 6.3V. One coil shows a stable 6.378V, while the other fluctuates between 6.270V and 6.310V.

            All other voltages seem fine — 1V, 3.3V, and 5V are present and match the expected values.

            I've replaces both buck regulators already (AOZ1212)...

            Gigabyte B450M S2H POST/boot issue
            by ezenia
            Hi,

            So I got a faulty Gigabyte B450M S2H motherboard off eBay. It was listed as having a potentially faulty CPU socket. When I got the board, I went straight to checking the CPU socket under a microscope with the plastic cover removed to verify if it was actually damaged. None of the pins looked broken or damaged.

            So I started troubleshooting the board to see what's actually wrong. The 1st issue I found was there was 0.7V at the power button header. I found the cause was the 6-legged ESD chip that was next to the header. So I removed the chip which brought 5V back to...

            ASUS ROG STRIX B450-F GAMING REV 1.01 - USB Overcurrent Issue.
            by ezenia
            Bought an ASUS ROG STRIX B450-F GAMING REV 1.01 off eBay. Seller said fault was board wouldn't POST and was stuck on CPU LED (and occasionally VGA/DRAM). When I tested the board, it actually does POST. However, it complains about a USB Overcurrent issue and shuts down in 15 seconds.

            Work has been done on this motherboard already. They removed the audio codec, a chip labelled U31U3 on boardview and some ESD diodes/SOT23's near the USB ports. It appears they tried to resolve this overcurrent issue and weren't successful. I did my usual resistance checks on the 24-pin connector and found...

            Strange Issue After A2681 Panel Only LCD Replacement
            by Teeheeze
            Hey everyone,

            I have a pretty strange issue I've experienced w/ 2 different A2681 2022 MacBook Air 13" devices now.

            The problem occurs after I replace the LCD panel on the screen assembly (panel only repair). After the repair and being assembled, I'll power on the device and you'll see the backlight illuminate, but the image on the LCD panel itself remains black. Once the keyboard backlights light up and the device boots to the macOS login screen, if I close and re-open the lid, then TADA.. The image comes up perfectly and the device continues to function normally...
