Aspire A315 LA-K701P short circuit

[Scarbs]

Hi,
I seem to have a short with or without a capacitor. I've removed the power management ic which was above 100 degrees. Short is still present.
Ideas please.

Search PUM2 in schematic and it will lead you to the IC.

Thanks SMDFlea, I have seen the schematic, but cannot locate the power management circuit.
