Hi mon2, I've got an XPS 15 7590 bit newer than this one but the charging circuitry is the same as the 9570. 20v 0a on USBC no power. Runs from a charged battery but will not run from DC charger or USB-c. PD1900 cathode reads: 20V, anode reads 20V. No voltage drop... PD1902 cathode reads 20V anode reads .002V could this be the issue? Resistor measurements all seem OK. PU1900 looks OK. 3v battery reading 2.5v...No liquid damage anywhere, previous owner mentioned it stopped working after a keyboard/topcase swap. Any insights/suggestions welcome. Thanks!

Not yet. Need to check if the ISL chip is being powered. Only after it is powered, the ISL chip will monitor for a threshold voltage on the ACIN pin # 19. If this threshold voltage is met or exceeded, then ACOK will be a logic high. ACOK is an open drain pin and will only be a logic high provided that the resistor @ PR1911 is present and should be ~100k ohms AND the VDD voltage that is powering the ISL chip is present on pin # 18.
So proceed to check the following voltages to ground on:
ACIN pin #19
DCIN pin #17 ; believe you have done this earlier but confirm it again
VDD pin #18

These are good readings. Remove all power. Meter in resistance mode. One meter probe on ACOK pin #24 on the charger IC. Other meter probe on pin #18 on the charger IC. No power again during these resistance checks.
What is the measurement? This is to confirm that the ~100k resistor is present as the weak pull-up @ PR1911.
After this, check the voltage to ground of AC_DIS @ PQ1906. If there is a high enough voltage on the gate of PQ1906, then this mosfet will enable and shunt the ACOK pin to ground.

Sorry, my bad. VDD is at 0 volts?? This will be an internal power rail. Can you confirm? The ISL may be defective. We can check in diode mode.
Update - in addition to checking if VDD is @ 0 volts, confirm the voltage to ground of the VDDP pin # 8.
Next, remove all power -> meter in resistance mode -> check the resistance across the resistor @ PR1908. This should be ~5 ohms (use your lowest resistance scale on your meter to measure).Last edited by mon2; 02-23-2024, 03:29 PM.

It's not close to charging circuit but it's close to charger port.1 Photo

An update, so in the Bios, the charger was being detected and battery charging for a bit, and then it went to no charger detected. It must have done this about 3 times before just reporting no charger installed. Had a look at where ACIN_ISL88783 goes, PR1904, PR1906 & PC1925. This area got very very hot. Once the bios reported no charger, the area cooled off and no longer got hot… Thoughts? Can look to replace those components…. Also now wondering if I soldered the ISL properly, all the legs look fine but perhaps too much solder in the middle and grounding pins..
