    Bricked Latitude 7530 laptop

    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.

    Go back to the usb port with this transient voltage. Review the resistance to ground of VBUS. All parts here are suspects. Most likely a local usb load switch and vbus linked caps will be found to be defective. Flux and remove each till the short is removed. Keep track of the parts, their location and their polarity (if applicable). Ceramic caps are not polarized but other caps may be.

      My previous experience with such things usually results in a shorted PCH, as the USB ports are usually connected directly to it. Check your PCH power rails first before wasting any time on it.

        Thank you for the help mon2 and reformatt.

        For Dell latitude 7320/7420 the board looks similar to the 7530, and I checked the 5V rail of the USB and it is going to these, one of them is SLGC55544CV USB Charging Port Power Switch and Controller.

        I am in regret now as I am realizing that I might have been too hasty to remove the IC I removed, because I remember that I was actually reading 5V on some of its pins. But the overheating and the hissing was from it's circuit, so probably the IC wasn't bad..

          Obscure Pentium laptop, sudden short?
          by keldeo
          I've purchased this weird (and might add appears to have had a fairly rough life) laptop a while ago for $1 at a yard sale. It powered up one time, (saw a POST screen!) Then, never powered again. I've since thrown it in some dark corner, BUT, I've decided to look at it again. First, this seems like a very obscure laptop, mine just has the name "BIT" on it and nothing else. Very similar (same?) can be seen here https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?t=54655.

          At first, I had gotten the weird mini display on the lower part of the laptop to display a few icons, but if I attempted...

          Gaming laptop Clevo NH79EP with short on 5VS-rail
          by techrepairheide
          Hello,

          first of all I want to apologize for my bad English, but I try to give my best.

          Customer brought me a laptop, which is charging the battery (when the dc-jack is connected) but don't power up when the power-button was pressed down. Only the white LED lights up, and you can hear a short noise in same interval when power-button was pressed and hold for longer timer. The customer changed already battery and dc-power-adapter.

          For this laptop the correct shematic is the service manual "Clevo NH50ER NH57ER NH50EPS NH57EPS - 6-71-NH5S0-D02 Schematic"....
