    RTX3080 shorted 12V - How to proceed?

    I received this RTX3080 with a clear short on one of the 12V inputs. The PSU goes into protection mode, and simply clicks when turned on (My friend told me that).

    I tried injecting 1v 3a at the shorted side, but nothing gets hot as these boards are crazy thick. I don't wanna damage the GPU, so I'm currently considering removing the mosfets one by one and checking, but as they are right up against alu caps, it will be risky, as they need crazy heat to remove.

    I sadly do not own a ESR meter so my Fluke 189 struggles telling the resistance difference between the mosfets.

    I'm all ears, as this is my first GPU repair.

      only miliohmmeter can help. otherwise u must remove mosfets until short is gone. if caps is near, than better remove caps first

          You can try to measure the gates resistance of the mosfets, there is a good chance that the shorted mosfet will also have a short on the gate pin.

              Panasonic TC-P50S1 shorted TXNSC1EDUU (TNPA4782AB) SC Board
              by Yanleb
              Hi every one. I just want to share the successful repair of my shorted Panasonic TNPA4782AB SC board.

              I don't usually do it but so many parts were shorted that I decided to buy the ShopJimmy repair kit instead of sourcing each components individually. Here is the list of components the kit contained, with a remark indicating if I needed that part or not :

              D608, good
              D618 RF101L4S, good (See warning 1 below)
              D619 RF101L4S, good (See warning 1 below)
              D865 RF101L4S, shorted (See warning 1 below)

              HP Victus 15-FA1025NL , board DAG3PAMB8D0 REV:D, shorted CPU DrMOS and n-mos
              by modtool
              Hi to all,
              the owner of this machine gave it to me after having opened it to take off the dust from the inside, telling me that after that it didn't start anymore.
              I found that one of the DrMOS (AOZ5016QI) on the CPUCORE was shorted between VIN and VSWH, and that one of the two n-mos connected to the power jack was shorted aswell.
              I unsoldered the two shorted components and verified that there were no other short circuits, then decided to power the mainboard, firstly with the lab power supply, then with its original HP 200w charger, but the behaviour is the same, the board starts...

              Dead Razer Blade 14 2022, shorted CPU?
              by BalkanBoy
              Hi,

              today I got Razer Blade 14, Ryzen 9 6900HX and RTX 3070Ti.

              Laptop was completely dead. I found shorted CPU VRM mosfet, shorted 19V mosfet and blown battery fuse.

              I replaced it all, but still on CPU coil where mosfet was shorted I got very low resistance, near 0 ohms. On other CPU coils I got around 3 ohms.

              Laptop now raises voltage on whole board, but still nothing comes on the screen. CPU gets 0.7V on all coils except the shorted one. CPU gets only slightly hot, below 40 C.

              I removed coil and injected 0.7V, it draw around...

              Dell Latitude 5501 LA-H181P shorted power rail
              by guizmo1967
              Hello,

              This is my problem:

              Laptop: Dell Latitude 5501
              Motherboard: EDC51 LA-H181P

              I have two power rails shorted to ground, +1.0V_PRIM and +3.3V_ALW_PCH. I removed solder on PJP302, +1.05VALWP (pad1) not shorted but +1.0V_PRIM (pad2) shorted.

              I also cleaned PJP38, pad1 not shorted, pad2 (+3.3V_ALW_PCH) shorted to ground.

              I measure the resistance of all the coils on the motherboard and they all were not shorted to ground except coil PL301 before I removed the solder on PJP302.

              I injected +1.05V - 2A...

              Intel D865PERL - no Vcore after replacing MOSFETs and MOSFET drivers
              by kotel studios
              Hi,

              Finally got time to fix this board up.
              At first it didn't give any POST codes. Turns out it was an unsupported Celeron D cpu. After dropping in an Celery 2.6gHz the CPU came out of reset with clock signal, but still no post codes. For a while it did work when I applied pressure to the ADP3168 chip, but on next reboot the MOSFETs started to burn. Then I left it as is for months.

              Now I came back prepared. Replaced the bad MOSFETs and the ADPxx18k drivers. Now I don't get any MOSFETs blowing up issues anymore. But sadly, the Vcore is missing. The whole VRM isn't...
