    Lenovo L15 Gen2 Not Booting

    My L15 doesnt power on. When I connect charger, charging light lights up, and Power LED blinks 3 times, then nothing... When I press power button nothing... I tried everything, remove batteries, checking fuses...

    Maybe BIOS is corrupt?

    Mainboard is: NM-D271 HL4A0 / HL5A0 REV2.0

          Carefully measure the voltage to ground of each pin on dual dcin mosfet at PQ0204. Post each measurement. Schematics are available in the schematics forum.

              You do not have the power coming from the external power adapter (based on the measurement on pin # 2 of this dual mosfet).

              Carefully measure the voltage to ground at both sides of the fuse @ F6001.

                  Now measured with batterie and power adapter (batterie is charging)

                  Pin1 16.26V
                  Pin2 20V
                  Pin3 0V
                  Pin4 1.767V​

                  When I connect the power adapter, the power led blinks three times. When i press power button, nothing happens.
                  When I disconnect cmos batterie and connect power adapter the power led stays on, fan spins up, cpu gets warm, but no picture. sometimes I even get a error code over speakers.

                    Connect the power adapter. What is the voltage to ground at capacitor c6002?

                    what is the voltage at the fuse f6001?

                        It works:
                        https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...n2-not-booting

                        SD-Card Controller was burned, and BIOS was Corrupt.

                          lenovo e15 gen2 bios ? problem
                          by madrali

                          Hi, my laptop suddenly shut down while it was running. When I try to turn it back on, the screen stays black and it emits a melodic beep.

                          I used Lenovo's SmartBeep decoder and it returned error 0284:
                          "TCG-compliant functionality-related error (possibly BIOS code validation failure)"



                          I then tried to enter crisis BIOS recovery mode by pressing Fn + R at boot. The melodic error code changes, but nothing else happens regardless of whether a USB is inserted. I receive another...

                          Lenovo Thinkbook 15 G2 ITL i5 (serial number: MP2BFZEF) bios request
                          by Wahaz
                          Hello,

                          I have a Lenovo Thinkbook 15 G2 ITL i5 Laptop (serial number: MP2BFZEF) that when I turn it on, the led on the power button lights up for 5 seconds, then goes out. There's no display and nothing happens.
                          So I thought it was a Bios problem.
                          I found 3 bios chips on the board, which I read with a bios programmer: two XMC model bios chips and a Winbond model bios chip. Each XMC model bios chip has two partitions named XM25QH128A [3.3V] and XT25F128A [3.3V]. And the Winbond model bios chip has three partitions named W25Q80BL 3.3V, W25Q80xV 3.3V and W25Q80DV 3.3V....

                          Lenovo Legion T5-26AMR5 Desktop - Corrupt BIOS
                          by grimacelord
                          Hello there.

                          I am working on a Lenovo Legion T5-26AMR5 desktop that currently has a corrupt BIOS and I have been unsuccessful thus far in trying to fix it myself.

                          History:

                          1. This computer came to me initially with an error message that said "BiInitializeLibrary failed 0xc0000001" or "0135 fan error". It would always be one of the two errors. It should be noted that when it produced the fan error, there was no physical problem with the fans. They were all spinning just fine.

                          I searched for this error online and discovered...

                          Lenovo IdeaPad 330 15-AST 81D6 BIOS Recovery
                          by jendkkd jeje
                          So a couple of years ago i got a bios update through Lenovo Vantage, so i installed it and bricked my whole BIOS, so i couldn't fix it so i put that ideapad in a box, 3 years later i found that one PC and want to recover it to switch from a 2014 hp laptop to this one.

                          I found a method to recover the BIOS of many lenovo laptops tha consists in pluging in a USB Flash with the BIOS files and power on the laptop with Fn + R keys pressed until fans go loud and start beeping loud, but nothing worked, so i think filename is wrong, i tried naming the bios file as 07WW.BIN, BIOS.BIN, BIOS.fd,...
