      You need the MiniProg3 - CY8CKIT-002 (possibly MiniProg4 will work too) and the PSoC programmer from Cypress. Then you have basically two options.

      a) Have a exact same spare board where you extract the firmware from to program it into the replacement.

      b) Programm "sample firmware" into the PD-Controller from the EZ-PD Host SDK Kit which is supplied from Cypress too, in the hope you can update it later with files from the laptop manufacturer.

      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...

          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...

          820-00165 no green light on the charger and no fan spin
          by mcnamj70
          I am troubleshooting a Macbook Air and the SMC posts a voltage of 8.2V at PPBUS_G3H.

          Should I replace the SMC?

          Macbook appears dead with no green light on the charger and no fan spin.

          DELL Alienware 17 R3 (LA-C912P) only work with 120w charger in mode low CPU clock
          by exerion5000
          Hello, I received this laptop with the following condition: When I turn it on, it shows the ALIENWARE light and the Alien button lights up, then it does not show an image and it restarts constantly, as the customer had already informed me that the battery was dead, I connected an original charger that I had it for testing, the machine turned on normally and I was able to enter Windows without problems, after a while of testing I noticed that it is very slow (like a Cyrix 425...), and after performing a CPU test the frequency is
          below normal, as if it were operating in an extreme energy...

          by HERETIK10
          Hello everyone,
          Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to help me. Sorry for the quality of my English, I had to use a translator at times...

          I bought a functional Clevo D901C (Sager NP 92261) with its battery but without its power supply.
          So, I invested in a new LiteOn charger, advertised by an online seller as the right charger for my machine... BUT, according to the pinout (4pin + shell) of the charger, 1 and 2 are 20V / and 3 and 4 are grounded. When I measure pin 4 with the ground of the PC, I have 300kOhms, which seems to be confirmed by the electrical...
