    Remove U50 and measure pins.

    If OUT pins still low resistance check USB connectors and C442 and C443.
    PIN 8 oc# = 0.607Kohms
    PIN 7 OUT = 0.607ohms
    PIN 6 OUT = can't get a resistance on this pin ? OL
    PIN 5 OUT = when i open the gate (i think) i get 3.482 Mega ohms

    Sorry im a total noob when it comes to measuring mosfets.

      My bad, I meant motherboard pads. Sorry..

      U50 is likely broken, now you have to check at ouput pins to USB are not shorted.

      U50 have to removed from motherboard.

        I checked the pins on the USB connectors with the meter , No shorting on the 2 connectors. but C443 came back with a high resistance of 10.67 mega Ohms and still rising slowly
        C443 =10.67 Mega ohms.

          Ok.

          Next check other side of U50 pin 2,3 and C440.

          If those are ok it is very likely at just U50 has shorted and broke PU401 also.

          Before you buy a new circuit need to make sure thing.

            pin 2 15.9 ohms
            pin 3 = 15.9ohms

            c440 =16 ohms

              Look low but not shorted.

              You can measure U53 for comparison.

              Is PU401 complete dead?

                I replaced
                1. u50
                2. pq401
                3. c443

                I powered it up works but the display/ lcd Back light not working.
                I replaced the inverter , got a spare LCD, it still continues to power the back light. Any ideas

                  Re: lenovo G550 zombie laptop.

                  check LCVD circuit, inverter pins. vin(+10 - 21V), gnd, on/off (3.3v), brightness(200mv - 3v) if one of them missing trace back to soruce. Still cant find, get vin from dc_bat_out. and others from nearest (s0)state switch..

                    Re: lenovo G550 zombie laptop.

                    I got a refurb board, and its intel based again, no nvidis gpu. But the screen is blank not dead just blank , graphics is none existent . Is this solution a reball/ reflow . Backlight is ok, the LCD cable is okay, and LCD is working on another laptop and it works fine on a external screen. What you guys think, Southbridge reflow?

                        Check the Close Lid switch to resolve the backlight.

                                The tablet did not recognize me when I connected it, so I checked the device manager and I realized that there were many with the exclamation mark, so one by one I began to update their drivers until the sign disappeared of admiration, I even updated the BIOS, and the laptop rebooted normally and worked, so far so good, but the tablet still did not recognize me, I read on the internet that it could be due to a...
