    HP 620 repair, dead, doesn’t power on, shorted SMD MLCC

    No LED indicators, with our without battery. Doesn't respond to anything. When AC adapter is plugged, a high pitch whistle coming from around system controller. No noticeable overheating around there, even dropping alcohol.

    From another forum I learn that U6000 is a Richtek RT8205E (marking DT=xx). Check VREG5 and VREG3 and none of them is delivering 5V and 3.3V, respectively. VREG5 line is shorted. I try to remove C6020 (10uF/6.3V) and it's shorted. Replace it and it's fixed!

    Motherboard marking is 6050A2364601-MB-A01. I attach closest schematics that I found.

      Dead Razer Blade 14 2022, shorted CPU?
      by BalkanBoy
      Hi,

      today I got Razer Blade 14, Ryzen 9 6900HX and RTX 3070Ti.

      Laptop was completely dead. I found shorted CPU VRM mosfet, shorted 19V mosfet and blown battery fuse.

      I replaced it all, but still on CPU coil where mosfet was shorted I got very low resistance, near 0 ohms. On other CPU coils I got around 3 ohms.

      Laptop now raises voltage on whole board, but still nothing comes on the screen. CPU gets 0.7V on all coils except the shorted one. CPU gets only slightly hot, below 40 C.

      I removed coil and injected 0.7V, it draw around...

      MSI GF65 Thin doesn't turn on, shorted on dc-in, how to find the culprit?
      by im_trying
      Hi, thanks for helping.

      The motherboard is from a gaming laptop, msi gf65 thin 10ue, 16W21/11S.

      For starters, it doesn't power on. I measured a "short" on the second DC-IN mosfet, right around the charging port but I don't know how to find the component that's shorting it.

      I already tried checking the mosfet for internal shortage (by desoldering and measuring) but no short. The drain on the motherboard is the one that's shorted, next to the gate (that's not shorted).
      The photo below shows this better than words.

      Thanks for anyone...

      G703GXR Dead CPU? shorted CPU power mofset replace, missing DRAMRST#
      by pc_okay
      Hello friends,

      I replace a shorted mofset (PU8104), now laptop is starting but no display, stopping at DRAMRST#.
      Resistance to ground on PL8104 is around 1-2 ohm, quite low but voltage seems ok 0.995V

      Any help would be appreciated it's a nice laptop !

      Thanks. 😃

      Acer Helios 300 N20C3- Dead Shorted mosfet blows
      by fallenapples
      Hey all

      Have the above laptop which is shorting out the power supply. 19v when plugged into the wall then when inserted into the laptop ir reads nothing untill you remove it from the wall and plug it in again.

      i found PQZ3 shorted so removed and confimed short gone.

      replaced PQZ3 and it shorted again?

      ive removed PQZ3 again and tested pads but theres no shorts there.

      QN65QN90A - Mainboard MLCC failed - now bootloop
      by l0lhaxz1
      Hi

      I have a QN65QN90A which was purchased around launch I guess making it about 1.5-2 years old... had been working fine until a few days ago, simply went black and would no longer turn on (at all). No standby light and no typical PSU relay click etc. Absolutely dead.

      Pulled it apart without doing much research first, suspecting the power supply as it had a faint buzz (I guess due to the forthcoming found short), investigated PSU for some time and concluded there was no fault that I could spot with the board removed.

      Came to learn after a bit more research...
