Hello
Sadly, I accidentally shorted the 5V power pin of the USB port to around 20V power, and the laptop turned off and will not turn on anymore. I hear hissing sound in the motherboard like there's a short circuit somewhere. I tried disconnecting and reconnecting the battery but with not luck, also on the USB-C power it is the same.
I did try and traced the 5V rail and I found this IC overheating. I did remove it after a huge struggle for long but the short is still there. Also the laptop still doesn't turn on and the charger light doesn't light when plugged..
Should one expect the output caps of the IC to be bad, or could the short have reached other important chips?.

I don't have access to thermal camera.
