    Asus X302LA battery power on issue

    Hey all,

    very weird case,
    When laptop is connected to charger, battery is charging and holding charge.
    When connected to charger:Upon power on, laptop turns on then off then on again.
    Without charger, upon power on, laptop is turning on then off and staying off. If i try to push again on power button it’s doing the exact same thing.

    i ordered a new original battery (i doubt it’s really original but a very good copy) exactly same phenomena.
    i upgraded the bios to 206 but no change.

    Guess my MB is the problem, but what should i check?

    thermal camera while off didn’t show off anything weird.
    and when its on CPU is warming up the board beyond ability to differentiate.

    Review the sticky above on charger circuits by piernov

    Suggest reviewing the charger circuit and their mosfets. Is the battery charging to its full potential and yet still unable to power the laptop?

    What is the battery is removed and tested with only the power adapter? Does the laptop boot?

    Which charger IC is onboard? Most Asus board schematics are kept as a family secret so you will be our eyes on this board. With no power, test the resistance to ground of each and every inductor on the board. Checking if there may be a possible shorted part on that local power rail which will consume higher than normal current and force the local power rail to shut off.

      Asus Probook P5440UF-XB74 power issue
      by GLISIT
      Hi all,

      TL;DR - this laptop is driving me nuts with the oddball power-related behaviors. Appreciate any insight you can provide!


      I'm experiencing a power issue on an Asus Probook P5440UF-XB74. Although I've worked with electronics and computers for decades, this is my first attempt at getting into motherboard-level component troubleshooting. Any help the community can provide is greatly appreciated!

      A few weeks ago I was using the laptop (on battery power) for a Zoom meeting. The battery was running very low (long meeting) but I wasn't worried about...

      ASUS X54H laptop thinks it's always charging even with charger unplugged
      by flat-earther
      The charging indicator light on my ASUS X54H laptop is always on even when the charger is disconnected.

      Windows also shows ''Plugged in'' when charger is not connected.

      This problem started year ago gradually, when unplugging the charger the charging light took several seconds to disappear, then minutes, and now almost always on even when unplugged for an entire day.
      Strangely, before sometimes immediately when plugging in the charger the charging light went away, and later came back with it connected.
      If I let battery run out and say it has 3% Windows will...

      Acer Spin 1 SP111-33 Power-On Issue (Troubleshooting Assistance)
      by justice171
      I am seeking guidance on an Acer Spin 1 SP111-33 that does not turn on when pressing the power button.

      Below are the observations and troubleshooting steps I have taken so far: Observations and Tests:
      1. Verified that all critical voltages are present:
        • 3.3V and 5V are always present if DC is plugged.
        • 1.8V on the BIOS chip is present.
      2. Checked the power button functionality:
        • When pressed, the voltage drops to 0V, indicating the button is functional.
      3. Inspected the flex cable connecting the USB, audio, and power button to JUB1:
        • Confirmed connectivity is intact, ruling out issues

      when connected to ac power, the battery does get charge, led indicator glows red when discharged and turns white as it is fully charged.
      but rest nothing happens no sign of life.

      this laptop has one preexisting usbc power issue - so i use DCIN jack for charging my laptop.
      with this issue my laptop was unable to power ON only sometimes i just had to wait some time.
      but now nothing happens no matter how much i wait/ charge/ press and hold power button.

      i have no knowledge of motherboards ....
