        This "might" be a schematic for it - I dont know for certain- perhaps you can tell by comparing with your machine

          Ruled out the AC adapter? Remember, these newer HP units are even worse than Dell as far as their center pin communication. Problems like this are usually pretty obvious if you open it up and visually inspect the motherboard.

            Hi. I use multimeter and check voltage on connector voltage on little pin and inside wall of connector both has a + outside is - and on inside + got 19.50 v on little pin + got a 18.02 v

            Like on picture attached, is possible to that 1 volt diference cause this defect ?

                Maybe is, but what can be shorted ?

                  You can't test these just with a DMM. That center pin carries a serial signal to the mainboard. This will not register on a DMM, only on a scope. In fact, that light you see is directly controlled by this signal. The power management IC reads info from this serial pin then turns on your 3v standby rail ONLY if it gets a valid reading (at least, that is how most newer HP laptops work). Its from this 3v rail where you get that blue light. Now, in saying all this, your problem is still probably motherboard related but its nice to rule out the little things first.

                      Hi. I use another AC power adapter and come up both lights beside power connector on board, but laptop is dead again. I spot two element was heating app. over 100c and I remove both, then start heating one beside this two, and I change all 3 elements from similar motherboard, and again not work it all.

                        Also, placing any sort of voltage on the center pin above 3-5V is a bad idea. If this is similar to the Dell design there is a 1-wire serial EEPROM between the center pin and ground (they should really be called "2-wire"). Those are not designed to withstand voltages above 5v.

                        I see two diodes there. Use the schematic and look up the right part number. "similar" may not be good enough. I suspect there is something shorted beyond the power circuitry.

                                hi there,
                                1-try to check your lcd by connecting with some other ok laptop, means confirm the lamp of your lcd is ok...
                                2- if your lamp is ok ...thats fine...if not change your lcd's lamp.\
                                3-if lamp is ok....check 12-18 volts of your F/L invertor or fuse that would be veryclose to the jack...

                                    Hi all!

                                    I'm trying to troubleshoot a Microsoft Surface Pro (5th gen) model 1796 that won't power on. Motherboard model is M1007506-015. My priority is retrieving data, but the SSD is integrated so it looks like if I can't repair it it'll need to go to a data recovery company. I've done a little basic board repair before, but nothing this advanced until now. So please forgive my ignorance in advance. 😅

                                    I found the boardview for this laptop in the forums here, and am able to open it on my PC with FlexBV.

                                    Hi all,

                                    TL;DR - this laptop is driving me nuts with the oddball power-related behaviors. Appreciate any insight you can provide!


                                    I'm experiencing a power issue on an Asus Probook P5440UF-XB74. Although I've worked with electronics and computers for decades, this is my first attempt at getting into motherboard-level component troubleshooting. Any help the community can provide is greatly appreciated!

                                    A few weeks ago I was using the laptop (on battery power) for a Zoom meeting. The battery was running very low (long meeting) but I wasn't worried about...

                                    I have wanting to do this project for quite sometime now and I finally found a switching power supply that will work on this desoldering gun station ZD-915 that the original switching power supply took a shit and just was not worth trying to fix it because this switching power is not quite big enough to handle the heater element and the vacuum pump

                                    One note when I tested the switching power supply and the voltage control board I noticed that this desoldering gun heat up much faster than the original switching power supply which I was really surprised by to the point that I might buy...

                                    Hello, I'm new to the group and to trying to repair a LCD TV. During the past few years, I've been collecting/repairing/restoring vintage personal computers (Commodore, Apple II, Atari, TRS-80, Texas Instruments, and Timex Sinclair). This has been my retirement hobby. Now I've gotten interested in trying to repair a LCD TV that I have and used regularly when working on vintage computers.

                                    The LCD I'm working on is a Insignia NS-LCD019. I've downloaded the service manual that I could find, but it must be a different revision since not too many items in the service manual match the TV...

                                    Power button blinking, Laptop Hp pavilion gaming 15-ak DAX1PDMB8E0 rev E
                                    by ronaldo17
                                    When I press the power button, nothing happens. All I can see is the power button blinking and never stopping.

                                    Here’s everything I’ve tried:
                                    -Removed the battery
                                    -Changed the power adapter
                                    -Replaced the CMOS battery
                                    -Changed the RAM.
                                    But my laptop is still blinking. However, in the morning after I wake up, the laptop will turn on.

                                    Here is my spec:
                                    -i5 6300hq
                                    -Gtx 950m
                                    -Hp pavilion gaming 15-ak030tx Laptop DAX1PDMB8E0 Rev E
                                    Now, I'm trying to fix the motherboard using the schematic I found
                                    If anyone can help...
