    PS5 APU damaged? - Very low resistance below the APU

    On my PS5, there was a short circuit, and under the thermal camera, three chips were glowing (RT5127 power management IC, SSD RAM, and SSD controller). I removed all three. Now, there are no more shorts except under the APU.
    There, I measure very low resistance. Is that normal, or is it an APU defect?

    GTX 1080 TI Gigabyte Aorus low resistance on vmem
    by cind12
    Hi guys, i was wondering, i've got 9Ohms on Vmem, one of the mosfet was shortet to ground, so i've desoldered hi and low mosfets nad still low res, then i removed all of the memory chips, and the resistance is still low, so did you had maybe a card with that low res on memories, and the card was working fine ?
    Removed the U1866Q and still without result, i dont have thermal cam so can't see where is hot spot when incjeting voltage.
    The resistance on core is ok 0.1Ohm ((Power 0.8V when on)
    Resistance on 12V 4K ohms (Power present when on)
    Resistance on 12V PEX 4K ohms...

    Lowest possible resistance on laptop motherboard rail - Guide Table request
    by Nagy Daniel
    Hi, I'm Daniel, and I'm new to the world of repairing motherboards.

    I would like to create a table, or more likely a guideline about the voltage rails and their possible resistance rail.

    I know that the motherboard design has a very big depend on the rail's resistance, but I would like to know what is the smallest value for a rail that can be acceptable. For example, I heard that some new gaming motherboards can have 0,5 Ohm resistance on the GPU rail, but on an older type, it could be a sign of a shorted GPU rail.

    So, I generated a table with AI so I can...

    Dell E7450 LA -A961P - diagnostics after flooding and damaged PD817, PD5 diodes
    by bpjl
    Hi,

    I have La-A961P Rev: 1.0 (A00) from a flooded laptop on the table. The computer was flooded with tea and at the same time the power supply was disconnected, the battery was removed immediately and the laptop was turned upside down.

    I looked at the mainboard, but I don't see any marks of water damage. Maybe the liquid did not reach MB, or maybe I just don't see it.
    During the inspection, I noticed a burned (charred on one side) double diode PD817.



    Voltage drops during PD817 measurements:
    - PIN1-PIN3 forward biased = 0.137V...

    ASUS Rog Strix G17-712LV Laptop Liquid damaged
    by XxMicroSoldering
    Hello Guys

    I have a ASUS Rog strix laptop that I bought recently to fix and the previous owner spilled water on it . He brought it into a repair shop for them to check it out and instead of fixing it they damaged the battery connector of the laptop ! Other than that they damaged damaged nothing . But since the liquid damage the laptop only turns on and the keyboard lights up and then immediately turns off. I really want to repair this laptop and I also have experience in repairing phones etc and laptops and a bit of soldering but the diagnosing part is where I need help with and...

    Acer Aspire E5-574G - Not Powering On
    by novice1
    Laptop name Acer Aspire E5-574G. Processor = i7-6500u. GPU = NVIDIA GEFORCE 940M. Motherboard Model = DA0ZRWMB6G0

    This laptop was not powering on at all so I started investigating. The blue light would come on for a second, and then disappear. Fan would sometimes turn on for a second and then shut off immediately, and at other times would not turn on at all.

    To start with, about 3 months ago I had no clue about soldering, motherboard schematics, board view, and then I stumbled about this forum and other stuff online. I have never done any of those before. But to ask...
