Hello All, I have a Lenovo Slim Pro 7 14ARP8 83AX, Board No NB6369A_MB_V5
Behavior - Pressing power button results in three second led blinks on the button,
Connecting charger lights up orange as normally would while charging.
Connecting charger without battery blinks orange.
No fanspin.
Tried flashing bios, no change.
I inspected the board and found a burnt component on the USB / Power button daughter board. I assume the comonent was an esd protection diode as it was on the USB A port power rails. removed the component but still exhibits same behaviour (5v is present on the usb)
I can measure 20v on various parts of the board, but no power on any of the power inductors for GPU / CPU
I observed that if i disconnect the daughterboard ribbon cable one fan spins at high speed otherwise still no boot or power to gpu/cpu.
I also measured really low resistance, (around 0.2 ohm) on the GPU inductors, but i have read that that is typical for GPUs?
Not sure where to head from here as i have no access to schematics. any pointers would be appreciated.
Will post further findings in case of any new development
