    The angle of the shared last pic is not clear but appears to be with topside markings of "LE=" ? If there is an '=' in the markings, the part is from Richtek. Only the first 2 letters of the markings are relevant. The markings after the '=' are the manufacturer's datecode for this component and can be ignored.

    In searching for 'Richtek LE=', the part is:

    Richtek RT6258BGQUF

    https://www.richtek.com/assets/produ...S6258BC-03.pdf

    To confirm if this part is shorted, remove all power -> meter in resistance mode -> measure the resistance to ground for the output of this regulator. Also a good idea to test the same in DIODE mode on your meter. Red meter probe to ground; black meter probe onto the output of the point to test.

    Post each measurement.

      thank you mon2 . i see now from datasheet that VCC and VOUT have short to ground also when component removed . but now there is no overheating component . when i test the component outside the board there is no short on it . how can i know what component is short ???
      thank you

        From the schematic, there are a number of this part onboard. This exact part must be the one with a 'B' in the suffix. Based on this search, your defective part is @ U6002.

        Can you confirm that VCC (pin # 9) is with a short? Remove all power -> meter in resistance mode. What is the exact resistance to ground? Same question for VOUT (pin # 10).

        Respectively, VCC is a LDO (low current) output rail that accepts the high voltage on VIN and lowers it to a suitable 5 volt to power thic IC. Only being loaded by the IC and C6028. Carefully flux and remove C6028. Then check the resistance to ground again for VCC.

            9th Gen Dell Optiplex Micro PC motherboard repair: Short Circuit?
            by Geeker007
            Hi All, I have a 9th Gen Dell Optiplex micro PC motherboard which doesn't power on. When I connect the motherboard with power adapter, it goes into safe mode and turns off. So from info I have gathered online, it looks like there is a short circuit on the motherboard. So can you guys help me with figuring out the issue?

            I am new to electronics repair, so my queries could be naive but I am ready to learn.

            So I have a multimeter and a solder with me. But I can try to get a variable voltage power supply with a thermal camera as well. From what I seen online, best way is...

            Asus ROG ga401IV motherboard - AC Short Protection resistor getting hot
            by gaelican
            Hi,

            I am working on an Asus ROG laptop repair. I was able to find that there is a short on the motherboard, and the 20 volts from the charger only gets to the first mosfet before disappearing.

            When looking around with a thermal camera, I noticed the chip marked "14C" in the picture was getting warm. Nothing else was receiving heat.

            I found a boardview diagram and schematic for a motherboard that looks nearly identical, that has the same component. This appears to be marked as "AC Short Protection" with a value of 13.7KOhms.

            ...

            Beginner question. Did I find a short?? HP dax31mb1aa0 REV A motherboard
            by Mess

            Hi beginner here, so I'm not sure of I've done this right 😅 trying to diagnose my laptop's motherboard (dax31mb1aa0 rev a). I don't quite know how to read the schematic, so I'm attaching the pictures of the motherboard and the measurements.

            I was attempting to measure resistance to GND on inductors. I disconnected motherboard and used "continuity testing" setting on my multimeter. I put black probe to Ground & red probe on an inductor. Did I measure this right? Am I correct to think that 0.3 ohm measurement indicates a short circuit? Thank you for your help!...

            laptop 19v short circuit dell vostro 1400 motherboard ,need help in repair .
            by playit
            the comon problem they say , the charger will shut off power once plugged to laptop , i dont have battery, its long gone ago , i use it for backup with adapter and vga port to external monitor(yes no screen lcd) in case my desktop needs fix . one thing for sure i could say the clr resistor - r010 beeps ,short at both sides , the checked all the coils , the 3 coils together gives all of them beeps short along with their respective capacitors . i dont have voltage ampere injection dc machine as in videos i have seen they see where its getting hot and they remove the short and replace components...

            Lenovo ThinkBook 13s-IML (20RR) No backlight!
            by Echoo
            Hello!

            The image is visible, but there is no backlight! On older Lenovo laptops, this problem could have been solved by replacing a fuse, but now I can't find the solution!
