    Dell la-d801p motherboard no power

    Hello.
    I need help with a laptop Dell with LA-D801P motherboard.
    The laptop completely died, no power, no leds.
    The voltage of 19V is present at the output of the second mosfet.
    The voltage on Pin 9 and 19 of PU102 is 0V.
    Voltage on
    PU100 :
    pin2 =19v
    pin11 =4.16v
    pin12 =0.18v
    pin17 =0v
    pin19 =0v
    I have 0 ohms on the coils PL100, PL301 and PL700.
    If I remove pjp102 the short remains on the side of +3VALW.
    Then I removed pjp501 and pjp801 but the short did not go to the integrated PU500 and PU800.
    Then I checked UZ3 and here I had a short on pins 6 and 7.
    Here I injected a voltage of 3V and 1A on pins 6 and 7, then I increased the amperage because I couldn't see anything hot under the thermal camera and only at 4-5A did I notice that the processor was heating up. What else could I do and what did I do wrong?
    PU703 I replaced it but it had no effect.

    Any help appreciated, schematic attached.
    Thank you in advance!!!

    PL700 shouldnt be shorted to GND. Are you sure about it?
    However, a dead short to GND on +3VALW coupled with +1.0V rail is almost a sure shot indicator of shorted PCH. So perhaps end of story.

      Yes, PL700 and 1.0V is shorted to ground, and thats the end of story. Thanks.

        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...

        Dell E5470 LA-C631p - Short removed now turns on but no post/display
        by retrorepair2
        Got a really frustrating issue here, got a Dell laptop as above which initially had a short on the +POWER_SRC rail, discovered a short cap in a bank of 3 near PU801. Removed and verified the short was gone, it was and the laptop powered on, tried to load windows but just kept rebooting. Sometimes didn't post. Battery was charging.

        Stripped it back down and replaced the cap (assumed looking at the LA-632p schematic it's a 10U cap, no boardview so who really knows). Now the board doesn't charge the battery and while it powers on with a brief spin of the fans, there's no display on the...

        Dell Latitude 5350 Ultra 7 Motherboard
        by Julian Bailey
        Hi

        I have a Dell Latitude 5350 Ultra 7 Motherboard I am trying to repair that has a blown chip.

        The chip is marked as eHOLH similar to the one I have pictured.

        Any ideas what it does and what the pin outs are as 3 tracks have gone and need to find out what / where they went / did etc.

        Dell PN of the motherboard is 08DCGW.




        Below is the area I am trying to repair:



        Does anyone have a picture of this motherboard in this area they could take and upload?

        Cheers...

        Dell E6400 PT434 type Battery Charging Stuck at 1%. Battery Pinouts?
        by Bowline
        My question pertains to understanding the control circuity inside a Dell PT434 type battery used in Dell E6400, E6410 and other Dell notebooks?

        Does anyone have a circuit diagram for the inside of a Dell PT434 battery and/or a description of how the control lines work to control this battery?

        My reason for asking is I have a battery which I cannot get to charge beyond 1% in a Dell E6410 or E6400.
        The LED bar graph charge indicator on the battery shows one LED lighted when the info button is pressed.
        I have tried multiple different Dell power adapters. My Dell...
