    Surface 7 - missing S3 sleep signal, S4 present but weird

    Hey fellow Badcappers
    I am troubleshooting Surface 7 board (rev 1.0) which was working great until it experienced a short circuit due to a bad screen.

    Now it's missing SLP_S3 signal. Everything in the power on sequence works properly up until that signal.

    - The resistance to ground on the SLP_S3 line is >50 kOhms.
    - No shorts on any powerrails that I can find.
    - I get a proper clock signal on the RTC crystal (XTAL_2P) once the Surface gets power.
    - SLP_S4 is, suprisingly, present, but it looks very weird (jump up to 2 V for about 10 ns and then plummets down to under 1 V).

    Do you have any idea or experience with similar issue? Thank you

    UPDATE: It was a bios issue.

      Asus Zenbook UX431DA / UM431D - Ryzen - missing PWM Fan Signal.
      by gurj1979
      Hey guys.

      Need help with this one.
      Fan not spinning due to missing PWN Fan signal.
      Also 5 seconds from powering up it freezes, unless in BIOS.
      But as soon as Windows starts to load, it will freeze.
      CPU is COLD / Room temp when it freezes.

      I've replaced the CPU, same problem.
      Replaced SIO/KBC IT8987e and reprogrammed - same problem.
      Replaced fan - same problem.
      Replaced flex cable from board to daughterboard (which has fan connector on it) - same problem.
      Checked the Thermal sensors around CPU and Board to the SIO/KBC and...

      Hi everyone, I hope you are having a good day.

      I have a laptop sony Vaio, DA0HK1MB6E0, MBX-247. REV: E

      The laptop suddenly shut down as the owner told me, so I did the normal check there is no short but the laptop it's not powering up and there is no light when I connect the adapter because there is no battery.

      so I checked.
      pu9:
      Vin: 19v

      Ldo: 4.89v

      Ref:1.99v

      Vcc: 4.89v

      Vdd: 4.89v

      output

      3.3v pcu.

      Acer Nitro 5 AN515-43 Turns on Then Off..
      by Kooopa
      Hi! I'm back again... so I solved my previous issue but now it's back with a vengeance...

      First, history... previous issue was dead motherboard, blinking power LED, no fan spin nor LED backlight, which was caused by a missing SLP_S5#. This was fixed when I replaced the RTC crystal.

      Which brings us to the present. The screen started glitching every other 2 seconds. The screen corruption looks like the horizontal pixels/scan-lines are being shifted to different spots. This also happens on the BIOS setup. So I thought, "Okay, this might be my LCD since the thing has...

      board came in cleaned up from a previous technician.. after examining the board visually I've seen some work done on the EFI/firmware..
      I've taken the chip out and it reads ok on Mac EFI Toolkit, I can read the SN and other information normally..

      I have taken a look into the board and I could not find anything suspecting.. I tried to look for corroded chips or corroded caps even to see if there's any areas damaged by liquid and I could not..

      I've taken some measurements:

      PPBUS 12.6
      PP5V_S5 present
      PP3v3_S5 present

      S4 rails when...
