    Dell N7010 No power

    Hello everyone,

    I have a very weird problem with a Dell N7010 DAUM9BMB6D0 REV with i3 processor. It came to me with problem that it won't start. Connect it to the lab power supply, it lights on and uses just 17mAmps and after a few seconds it shuts down.
    I said ok, lets test with ddm on continuity. I see that the CPU coil is shorted to ground with 0.02Ω. I change the CPU with a C2D that I have as a spare, the laptop works. I said great, the CPU is dead.
    I then try a used i3 processor and the same happens. This processor I test it on the laptop that I took it off and it works.
    The Dell processor on the other laptop won't work.
    Any suggestion what to test? I'm really confused with that one.

    Thank you
    John

    I found solution. I think that the first i3 that I tried was without graphics chip, so maybe that's why it wasn't working.
    I got one Dell N5010 with the same i3 CPU, and I tried it and everything worked fine.

      Dell inspiron 17 (7786) - DP/N 09P7JP - odd power issues, starting with no power LED
      by zlr8r
      hey guys, hoping for some pointers to repair an eBay bought "faulty" laptop.

      Ill try and give as much info as I can.

      Dell Inspiron 17 (7786) Laptop
      Service Tag: 5J0NHT2
      Bios: 1.9.0

      When I received this , it would only flicker on the KB backlight for a second, then off and on.
      Then it started getting weirder!
      Sometimes when attaching the AC power supply, and pressing various pre-boot diagnostic keyboard keys... it did try to boot, in fact out of a hundred attempts, the laptop did actually boot into the Bios ! but never has...

      Dell XPS 9380 No Power - After providing 3VALW and 5VALW once, they persist - still no power-up
      by seppde
      Hello everyone,
      I've recently gotten my hands on a defective XPS13 9380. I will attach a zip of the schematics and boardview.
      My first discovery on the Board was that the reverse current Diode PD103 of the 1st USB-C was blown.
      Nothing to worry about, the board got 3 USB-C ports which support Power/Charging. On I go.
      Next I inspected the power-rails to see why the diode blew up and found a short on the 3V3 rail which I traced back to the Power-IC for the LCD (UZ2). I desoldered it and the very low-ohmic short is gone. I checked on the LCD-connector that there's no short...

      test active pfc power with lamp test
      by khelane
      Hello
      I have a big problem and that is that in some cases when repairing active pfc power supplies I cannot work with a test lamp. I can only get help with 5 volts standby and for starting and starting I have to work without a lamp and this way there is a possibility of parts exploding and other parts being added.
      Sometimes with a multimeter test the problems can be reduced to some extent, but I had several cases that had to be tested on and online and recently two varistors exploded. They had terrible resistance because the power supplies were over 800 watts.
      Is there a way...

      Dell G3 17 3779 Weird power cycling and shutdown/restart issue
      by SuperJames
      This one's a weird one, and still unsolved despite it having gone back to Dell once.

      Specs

      i7-8750H, GTX 1060 Max Q, 500GB SSD & Seagate 7mm 1TB HDD. 17.3 IPS screen. This has the fingerprint reader in the power button.

      Backstory

      I bought this from eBay, from a wallpapering shop. £650 in 2020 which was a good price considering it's a gaming laptop. Physically it's in perfect shape, apart from the hinge mounts on the palmrest failing in the time I've had it (I have a new palmrest for it). The usual thin plastic crap modern build quality!...

      Dell XPS 13 9370 Laptop, No power, not charging
      by rob_hen
      Hello!

      This is my first post for help, and I am quite newer to board repair, so bear with me.

      I have this board here (LA-E671P), with no power, and doesn't charge. No lights come on when plugged in.

      After visual inspection of the board, U22 is obviously blown up. This is the for backlight, and there is no shorts present after removing the chip and replacing.

      There is 3 USB C ports to power this board, USB 1 gives 20V, while 2 and 3 only give 5V.

      My observations using USB 1 at 20V (0.075A draw on Ammeter, slowly drops from 0.136A)...
