    Lenovo Ideapad 15IIL05, turns on and off with charger BUT works by injecting 20v after main mosfets

    I got a 15-IIL05 that failed to turn on BUT IT DID TRY TO TURN ON and then turned off after 30+- seconds, i disassembled it and found a screw loose inside the case.
    With charger it turns on, fan spins but gives no image.
    Tested main mosfets no short, tested 3.3v,5v,DRAM, CPU etc and they were present.
    Reflashed BIOS, same problem.
    Replaced both main mosfets.
    Checked main mosfets again and i noticed that they closed once the laptop shut down, so i decided to bypass them and used a bench PSU to check how much power the laptop was drawing while trying to turn on, 20v@3A, and it drew around 12w... and the laptop turned on and booted into windows.
    What could i check to see what is causing them to close and not let the PC start? nothing seems to be overheating but i don't have a thermal camera to check properly
    Around BQ chip i guess but exactly what should i be looking for?

    Attaching schematic and boardview. MOD EDIT: Please post a link to the schematic/boardview

    Hello,

    You may try With battery alone first and with another charger.
    Then Check your first mofsets resistance (source>> Gate , G >>S, S>>D…)(without power!)
    You may Check résistances around your shunt résistor too.(without power)
    Check prochot voltage on your BQ, never know…(With system power on With charger)

    good luck !

      Lenovo T460 Only Charges on One Charger
      by motormayhem
      Laptop Question
      Hello,
      I'm working on a Lenovo T460 that has been having trouble charging as of late. Its worked well since I've owned it for a few years. When I went to use it the other day it was dead and wouldn't turn on (was sitting on an Anker 65W GaN charger). After some fiddling with the charger I got it to turn on and start charging, but seemed like the charger was not working as it should (took a few plug and unplug cycles to get it to start charging).

      A day later it was dead again and wouldn't boot/charge no matter what I did. No lights or anything when...

      Is it possible to upgrade from a Vestel 17MB97 main board to a 17MB110 Main board?
      by cheeky2
      I suppose the real question is whether the existing pinouts from ether a 17IPS71 psu are cross compatible with a 17IPS12 psu? If they are then the exchange of the main boards should have no issues providing the screen is compatible with both main boards. Obviously you can change the screen configurations easily enough (providing you have the correct files) for the main board. Why may you ask would I do this? Well a lot of the smart features are no longer working on a Hitachi 48HBT62U main board I wish to give it a new lease of life!
      Obviously the same LVDS connector for the screen connection...

      Sceptre U550CV-UMR 4K LED, Bad Caps on Main Power Board?
      by Dani_2024
      Hi and thanks in advance for any input you might provide!
      I have a Sceptre U550CV-UMRD8POTV83BB 4K LED (this is a dumb tv) that I bought new in August 2021, so It's just completed 3 years.
      Main power board model: TP.MS3683.PC821 T-Con board: N4TP546UHDPU2L_BO

      Last Sunday I was watching a dvd and fell asleep for about half hour, when I awoke the tv screen was black and couldn't get the dvd menu to show, so I changed the input to antenna and had sound but no picture, turned it off. I then got online and found this great site! ....read many troubleshooting tips and this...

      Dell Inspiron 7567 LA-D993P odd charger issue
      by Johndill
      Hi, I have a Dell Inspiron 7567 LA-D993P that I've just got running.
      There was corrosion around PU1503 which shorted PC1518 & blew PL1504. (Reference pictures attached)
      I've replaced PC1518 & PL1504 & the laptop is now running however I now have another issue.

      Here are the tested scenarios:

      1. With the laptop running on battery, I plug in the 150W charger & the charger shuts off (no LED, protection mode) but the laptop remains running on battery.

      2. With the laptop off, plug in charger (LED says on) & the front charging...

      ISL6257HRZ ISL6257HRZ-T Laptop Battery Charger Datasheet

      Highly Integrated Narrow VDC Battery Charger for Notebook Computers

      The ISL6257HRZ ISL6257HRZ-T is a highly integrated battery charger controller
      for Li-Ion/Li-Ion polymer batteries. ISL6257 is designed for
      Narrow VDC applications where the system power source is
      either the battery pack or the regulated output of the charger.
      This makes the max voltage to the system equal to the max
      battery voltage instead of the max adapter voltage. Operating
      at lower system voltage can improve...
