    HP X2 1012 G2 Type-C problem

    Hi everyone. An HP X2 1012 G2 came the other day. The problem was that the device drained the battery while off. I checked and saw the current is 0.2 before start. I went and checked parts on the MB and saw that the JHL6340 IC that is responsible for controlling Type-C gets hot. Everything worked fine and I checked charging and data of type-C both were OK. I went ahead and replaced the JHL6340. Now it does not get hot, no current before start, charging is OK, but the data of type-c is lost. I mean any type-c device like flash memory or hdmi adapter etc. do not work. I tried another jhl6340 and still the same problem.
    Any Ideas?
    Thanks in advance.

    Check each pin on the type c connector at the pcb pads in diode mode. Remove all power. Meter in diode mode. Red meter probe to ground. Black probe to point to test. Post each measurement and pin tested. The faults may be due to defective esd tvs diodes or a transient that killed the TBT controller the first time.

      Thanks for your reply. The point is that before replacing the TBT controller I checked data and power of type-c connector and I am 100% positive that everything worked fine. So eventually the TBT controller was not dead. Would it possibly change any part of your suggestion?

        Attached is the values I got from type-c connector pins. Any suggestion?

          Post a pic of the type C connector from the same side where these measurements were taken. Wish to compare the pinout to the connector's datasheet.

          My review is as follows (at this time):

              Concerns about the attached and circled areas.

              You are missing some parts in these PCB pad areas. Be sure the PCB tracks are not broken here.

                Sorry bro, thought you just need to see the pinout.
                The exact pcb pics are attached.

                  Could it be software related?
                  Like those devices that need the bios be modified when replacing SB?

                      Personally would consider to scrape very gently the blue solder mask off the round vias you can see on the PCB layout. That is, to allow for the meter to test each such PCB via from the connector through hole pads to these vias. Do this for each such PCB trace. Confirm that you have ~0 ohms between the paths (A-B conductivity checks). Proceed with care so that the via nor the trace are cut in the process of this investigation.

                      Diode mode is not recommended here because the meter will tone beep even if the resistance is ~30-50 ohms. We do want to confirm that each trace check is ~0 ohms. Short your meter probes to confirm the lowest the meter can measure before starting. No power during these tests. Want to rule out the connector / PCB traces / PCB vias as the fault.
