Re: Everything looks connected to gnd

seems big problems there ,
use alcool isopropilic put on the places were you notice HOT , to see wich component is making that
btw if you got mani regulator getting hot , probable you got serius sh##$ around there as well

but easy to deal with it ,,, you need to find the bad short components

I took of U3241 but no result. Now the PCH was getting red hot. That one I can't do.
The more components I take off around the PCH, L's and C's, the harder the short seems to be. Now I give up and don't spend more time, I spend already about a 3 weeks to fix this one.
Highpulse and FDDizon, thanks for your input and help

use psu to inject voltage to see shorted component

I should have, but I don't have one. So that's why the 19V adapter.

Something was wrong, because the current ran up to 3,2A and that is a big short or the board was killing itself due to high current. Every hot component I took out, didn't help, the short still remained. And then, when the PCH start getting hot I had to stop, because I can't replace a BGA.
