    Acer Nitro 5 AN515-54. displays on the external monitor and works fine, the issue is NO display on the internal screen

    Good day!
    I have a customer's laptop — Acer Nitro 5 AN515-54 (EH5VF - LA-H501P). It has a display on the external monitor and it's working fine, but the issue is NO display on the internal screen. I already replaced the eDP cable and checked the LCD connector pins.

    Here are the voltage readings:
    • Input – 19V (stable)
    • +LCDVDD – 3.3V briefly, then drops to 0V
    • EDP_HPD – 3.3V briefly, then drops to 0V
    • PCH_BKL_PWM – 2.2–5V briefly, then drops to 0V
    • EC BKOFF# – 1.8V briefly, then drops to 0V
    • PANEL_OD_EN – 0.3V

    Is it possible that the EC chip is corrupted or damaged?
    I don’t have a tool to program the EC chip, so I’ve hit a wall.
    Thank you!

    See attached. Carefully measure the voltage to ground of LID_SW#.

    Expecting this logic level to change when the LID is OPEN vs. CLOSED.

      Thank you for your reply! I have measured the PIN 1 and 2 and read 3.3V on both when the LID is Closed and Open.

        I forgot to include the magnet, thats when the voltage change when the LID is closed, it drops to 0.8 to 0.2 to 0v randomly.

          Aorus 17G YD laptop, broken display, could not switch to external monitor
          by ArchangelGabriel
          Hello guys! I need a little help, I have one laptop for repair, it is an Aorus 17G YD, gaming laptop. Broken display, some cable ripped form daughter board connector, case broken, battery discharged and probably locked, etc. After I did the most tedious job I ever did on soldering back the broken cables (shielded cable) , I measured resistance on CPU and GPU core, 3 and 5 v ps and any coils I find on the board, everything seems to be fine. After I plugged the charger I don't get the power led light on from the charger connection maybe because the battery is locked , but on power button I have

          How to force Acer Aspire Series to bootup BIOS/UEFI on external Monitor?
          by maralexbar
          I ask this question in general as there are many Acer Aspire models with UEFI Insyde BIOS that do not boot to the BIOS on an external monitor (VGA, HDMI, etc) showing only the Internal LCD (LVDS, eDP etc).
          It's a pain to work on Acer notebooks with a broken screen and not being able to access the BIOS using an external monitor.

          If anyone knows how to force the external monitor as primary for Notebooks of those models

          HannStar Hanns-G HC194d LCD monitor repair
          by momaka
          Normally, I never post repairs this quick after I do them, because… I am usually very slow. But today, I’m making an exception here. Why? No idea. Perhaps only because the repair details are still “fresh” in my head… which is ironic, given this is a 16 year old monitor that hardly anyone will care about today. It is new to me, though. I picked it up last November from someone on my local Craigslist. It wasn’t very close to where I live, but was close to a family friend that I had to go visit anyways. So after watching the posting on Craigslist for a few weeks and seeing it getting...
