    PCH replacement ??

    Hello,

    The PCH was shorted, I removed it and now I'm waiting for the new one !

    My question is:

    Do I absolutely have to reprogramed the BIOS with a Clean ME bin ??

    Thank you !

          Acer Alienware Nitro 5 (GH51G LA-L181P Rev: 1C) & Dell Alienware M15 (GDP50 LA-k452P Rev:1) - Both Shorted PCH (SRKMA)!
          by reessi
          Hello:

          I have both these laptops that appeared to have the same fault so I thought I would have a go at replacing the PCH as something to learn, they both are using the same PCH.


          I started on the ACER:

          Up on connecting power no signs of life but current is consumed from the bench power supply and the PCH is hot.
          All the caps on the top of the PCH are showing 0 ohms and the 3.3v rail is shorted.

          I followed the videos from Sorin, Electronics Repair School on Youtube heating from the bottom to install. I practised on around 10 scrap...

          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...

          ASUS FX505DV no power shorted at PWM controller Pin 3 VREG3 TPS51225C, need pinpointing of the short.
          by OOF DIO
          (If anyone has a functional boardview file of FX505DV/DU that would be helpful)
          (Had 3 problems, now just 1)

          I have no experience or knowledge and usage of tools to repair devices besides the entire past 12-10 days of researching, watching YouTube repair videos and troubleshooting this laptop motherboard. ChatGPT was used as a guide to ask questions.
          I used boardviews of mostly FX505GD-M, and some FX505DU, FX505DD. Used schematics of FX505DU.

          I had originally intended to replace the BQ24780s first (due to previous battery removal while benchmarking) but I...
