    Asus warranty.

    I am looking for input concerning any costs involved in returning a motherboard to Asus. Asus have advised me to return via the local distributor who will charge a $33.00 handling fee. Have any Asus fees been encountered? We are trying to gauge the cost/viability of a board repair under warranty (3 years for mobo).

    The board is a AN8-SLI and the north bridge fan and chip have burned. A 939 socket, otherwise quite a nice board. These fans are notorious for seizing this one burned internally.

      Re: Asus warranty.

      I returned my Asus P4P800 series motherboard late last year to my local distrubutor (Achieva Australia) for the same cost of $33AUD.
      It took me two weeks to get the board back, the repair to the board was good and there hasn't been any problems with my Asus board since the repair.
      The board originally had a burnt out Intel ICH5 southbridge due to a power supply with bad caps. Some MOSFETS were also replaced in the process of the repair from what I could see when I got the board back.
      My Asus board was also under the three year warranty but I lost my receipt so I had to pay the $33AUD handling fee to my local distrubutor.
      If the A8N-SLI motherboard still has a receipt then it can be returned to the store where it was bought and the $33AUD won't be charged for as far as I know.

          many thanks Stevo. Just what I needed. The owner has no receipt and the supplier is out of business.

              Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?
              by Tynan Dill
              I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

              Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

              I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

              The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

              With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

              ASUS STRIX Z490-F GAMING - No POST, stubborn board
              by DynaxSC
              Hi,

              I have this very stubborn ASUS mobo on the bench, and I already face the wall with it. It just refuses to POST, although everything seems to be OK.

              The situation looks like this:

              After connecting the board to the power supply on Nuvoton (SLP_S3#, pin 64), the Low signal (50 ohm resistance) appears immediately. PWRNTN# signal goes through Nuvoton to the chipset (confirmed after removing the chipset). The following conditions are then met for the chipset to generate the SLP_S3# signal:

              1. RTC oscillates normally (32.768KHz).
              ...

              ASUS ROG STRIX B550-F GAMING — Board not powering on properly
              by ShadowAi12
              Hi,
              I recently bought an ASUS ROG STRIX B550-F GAMING motherboard that was listed as "dead, not powering on." However, it does show some signs of life. I've performed several basic measurements and would like to share the results.
              • The board enters a "ready to power on" state after plugging in the PSU.
              • Pressing the power button increases power draw.
              • Sometimes, touching the RSMRST_L pad with a multimeter probe causes the board to shut off and return to standby.
              Measurements:
              (taken after pressing the power button, while the board is attempting to start)
              • H_SKTOOC#
              ...

              Faulty ASUS X99-PRO board. Some progress with repair. Need advice\help please.
              by jimbodriver
              Hi everyone,
              I am trying to learn electronics repair. I purchased a “faulty for spares/repairs” ASUS X99-PRO/ USB 3.1 motherboard for a very low price from ebay – a good enough price to offset the high probability that the board was completely toast and not realistically repairable.
              Initial results:
              Board would power-cycle when turned on either with switch on board or shorting pwr pins. Fan would spin for a second or so and a QCODE of 00 would display then it would power off and then do the same thing again over and over. I think maybe 2 times in about 100 attempts...

              ASUS VG32UQA1A t-con board issue
              by damndenis
              Hello everybody,

              This is my first post here, I've always loved to tinker with electronics, but never got in-depth with it. Hope I can learn a thing or two from this forum.

              I've got a 31.5" Asus monitor which distorts/flickers at equal intervals of a couple of seconds. From what I've gathered, it's an issue with the T-CON board, but feel free to correct me. Shipping from the manufacturer would cost 3x as much as the part itself. I was wondering, if there is a way to diagnose the board itself and replace the faulty components? I'm good with soldering, but not at all...
