    Asus x502c won't power up, still charges.

    Hi guys,

    I have a asus x502c which will not power on. It was dropped with the power lead connected, which damaged the DC port. The laptop still seems to charge ok but will not power on. If the power button is held, the charge light goes out, and come back on once the button is released.

    I have pulled the board out, and checked the DC port, seems ok, not shorting etc. I ordered a new port to replace it, but since it's still charging, and not powering on, I thought I better see what else needs replaced before I start soldering.

    If anyone can help me, I would greatly appreciate it.

      Ok, so just soldered on the new DC port. Still the same as I expected, still charging the battery, but won't power on. Checked voltage at the power switch, getting 3v, and 12v at the battery. Don't really know where to go from here :/

          Does KBC get hot when you hold the power button?

              No, it's acually working now. I reassembled it and it powered on. Seems it must relay on other parts connected. Thanks for the reply though.

                  Asus Probook P5440UF-XB74 power issue
                  by GLISIT
                  Hi all,

                  TL;DR - this laptop is driving me nuts with the oddball power-related behaviors. Appreciate any insight you can provide!


                  I'm experiencing a power issue on an Asus Probook P5440UF-XB74. Although I've worked with electronics and computers for decades, this is my first attempt at getting into motherboard-level component troubleshooting. Any help the community can provide is greatly appreciated!

                  A few weeks ago I was using the laptop (on battery power) for a Zoom meeting. The battery was running very low (long meeting) but I wasn't worried about...

                  Asus FX517ZC charges but power button does nothing
                  by TimeRabbit07
                  Hi all!

                  I've got an Asus FX517ZC on the bench at the moment and I just can't figure out what's going on with it.


                  Here are its various numbers and identifiers:
                  Model short: FX517Z
                  Model long: FX517ZC-HN114W
                  SN: NANRCX01S57842E
                  CN: 3SDB 12M
                  MFD: 2022-10
                  Motherboard model: DA0NJLMBAE0 REV E


                  Symptoms:
                  The laptop's charge light comes on, but when the power on button is pressed nothing happens. No fan spin, no caps lock, no screen or keyboard backlight, nothing.


                  History so far:

                  Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?
                  by Tynan Dill
                  I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

                  Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

                  I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

                  The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

                  With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

                  Assuming...

                  Microsoft Surface Pro (5th gen) model 1796 - no power
                  by PantherDave
                  Hi all!

                  I'm trying to troubleshoot a Microsoft Surface Pro (5th gen) model 1796 that won't power on. Motherboard model is M1007506-015. My priority is retrieving data, but the SSD is integrated so it looks like if I can't repair it it'll need to go to a data recovery company. I've done a little basic board repair before, but nothing this advanced until now. So please forgive my ignorance in advance. 😅

                  I found the boardview for this laptop in the forums here, and am able to open it on my PC with FlexBV.

                  ASUS TUF X570-PLUS doesn't power on: no VRM_EN signal.
                  by ShadowAi
                  Hello, I have an issue with the motherboard. Specifically, it doesn't power on, more precisely, the POST initialization doesn't occur.

                  Let me start from the beginning, the motherboard suddenly stopped working one day. There are no beep signals from the speaker, and the debug LEDs are not lighting up. After inspecting it under a microscope and using thermal imaging, I didn't find anything that could be damaged.

                  After that, I began voltage measurements, in which I noticed the absence of VDDQ, VDDP, VTT, and VPP lines. Later, I checked if there is an EN state on these lines,...
