    Lenovo t495 dont switch from charger to battery

    Hi everybody! This laptop eat my days in the last week. Initial i buyed a new battery, thinking is a battery issues but is not. The laptop charge fine, turn on fine when is plugged but when unplugg is dead. I think is a mosfet or chip who need to do the switch, but i cant identify him, and for that i need community help, thanks in advance! The mb is FA495-NM-C131-REV-1.0

    Review PQ18 and PQ103 mosfets. Remove all power. Meter in resistance mode. Measure the resistance across this mosfet.

    Check:

    source (1-2-3) & drain (5-6-7-8)
    source (1-2-3) & gate (4)
    gate (4) & drain (5-6-7-8)


    Testing for a low resistance. Each resistance should be hundreds of k ohms or higher for a normal mosfet.

    Post each measurement. No power to the board during these tests.

      I verified, i haved low resistance between source and gate of pq103. After desoldered it, i have low resistance between source and gate of pq18. I changed pq103 with another mosfet. The laptop power led flickering orange/white and dont start with battery connected. After disconnect battery, turned on plugged in. It s possible to both of them be faulty?

        Test the removed mosfets on your work table. Are they still with the low resistance measurement? The in-circuit resistance may be different than out of circuit resistance. Also review PQ102 but note that this is a dual mosfet in a single package but testing method is the same.

        Full details on this issue are posted here:

          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...
