ASUS G731G power on loop after repair attempt

[coconoce]

Hello everybody, I replaced the power plug of my Asus G731GW-EV123T (i7 9750h - 16gb - RTX2070) because the plug would overheat if not kept pressed in with a finger.

After soldering the new connector and checking for shorts on the soldered feet the pc has a new problem.

The pc starts up as soon as i plug the power, even if I disconnect the power button, but i get no video signal and after a while it turns off.

Where can I start troubleshooting?

Thanks

Hello, here's more details on the board:

G531GW REV 1.5

I started checking the board and found that with power plugged in the main coils (8v, 5v and 3,3v) seems to carry the correct voltage, same goes for the CPU coils.

GPU side things do not look good. I get 0ohm on all the inductors, what can I check next?

on a side note I noticed that the first mosfet after the power plug has a deep scratch on the top surface (see pic), I must have damaged it while removing the old power plug, checking source and drain in diode mode gives the same value of the neighboring one, should I consider replacing it

Hello,

I think your mofset is fine.
If you take out the battery and maybe cmos battery, that's normal laptop start automaticly.

Gpu Line have a very low résistance near 0ohm.


check ram, edp câble, are well plugged. (Test With one stick Of ram / one slot after another…
be patient, post can be very long after removing battery
You can try With hdmi without edp câble (don't Forget to plug out battery before touching edp câble)

send more photos of D.C. jack area to see if everything is in the right place

Thanks for the reply and the information on the gpu resistance.

I'll try what you mentioned in the next days and I'll update, I really hope I have not broken the edp cable, or worse connector, I've been very careful with it.

Here's a picture of the soldering made on the power connector, it is a bit rough since is my second dime soldering on a board, the small pin in the center looks shorted to positive but is not
