    short to ground CPU Vcore rail Acer vn7-591g

    Hello i need some help - acer vn7-591g i7-4710hq/ gtx960

    First the short was start from the second mosfet at DC-in, then i manage to isolate the short on small part of the MB, i will atach a pictures with the short, any suggestion how to identife where is it without desoldering all cap's.

    NOTE: Now the laptop starts if i cut the power to cpu.

    Measure resistance between DCBATOUT and 1V_CPU_CORE.
    Measure resistance between 1V_CPU_CORE and ground.

      between 14k
      1V_CPU_CORE and ground = 0

        If it's 0 and not 10 to 70 ohms (or so) then indeed something is shorted. You can inject 1V and check what heats up (do not go above 1.8V to not damage the CPU). Maybe PU4702/PU4703 or a capacitor.

          Safe to say your CPU is gone

            450watt power supply 5v, 3.3v short to ground wire,in output rail ,connectors
            by playit
            hello everyone , working zebronics power suply 450 watts , 5v ,3.3v givin short to ground black wire, also in circuit at output, resistor was charred but shows right values , after removing resistors 39ohms, 51 ohms, there was no short , no continuity beeps with ground , but after replacing new resistors (now i am not switching it on) ,again short still exists . when i put bigger ohm resistor like 100k ohm , no short beeping sound comes , lower ohm resistor gives continuity beeps ,other big ones donest , as its a working psu , i am confused what to remove now or how to go further now .

            Gigabyte GA-H61M-USB3-B3 dead short 3.3v rail to ground.
            by JimMc0
            Hi there,

            I discovered this forum through a youtuber who teaches electronic repair. I've been trying to troubleshoot my dad's old PC which is a Gigabyte GA-H61M-USB3-B3 and will not power on. I discovered a dead short on the 3.3v rail at the ATX connector so I used a bench power supply to feed 3.3v into the ATX connector and sunk about 400mA into the board (I hope that's not too much!). I used a FLIR camera to identify the problem area:



            The chip seems to be the following, an ITE IT8892E 1108-CXS which seems to be a PCI bridge?

            Xbox One S - 12V Rail Short - Q9F1 Keeps Blowing
            by grimacelord
            Hello,

            Have an Xbox One S here that has a short on the 12V power rail. There is no power, beep, or partial fan spin when connecting power cable.

            After diagnosing with thermal camera, Q9F1 MOSFET (NTTFS4C50N) is getting hot. When I remove this MOSFET, the short on the 12V rail disappears.

            I first replaced Q9F1 with one from a donor board and then partially reassembled the Xbox to test. When I plugged the power cord in, I got a partial fan spin and I thought I had fixed it, but unfortunately, the Xbox still did not power on. So I then disassembled the Xbox...

            Asus Geforce Cerberus GTX1050TI-O4G-DIS short circuit in the FBVDDQ rail
            by nagkiller
            Hello everyone!

            This grafic card came for repair, but when I connected it to the motherboard, the board would not start (short circuit in the 12V rail).

            After removing some PLs to isolate the short in the 12V rail, I got to PML1/PML2, according to the BoardView reference.

            Even injecting a voltage of 1V0 and a current of 3A in the FBVDDQ rail, for example, the voltage drops to 0V20 and none of the components heat up.

            The attached boardview file is very similar to this grafic card, which I am basing the repair on.

            I would like some...

            Acer Nitro 5 LA-L181p power LED turns on by 5 secs (Short on PCH rail?)
            by Victor Moreira Silva
            Hello everyone,

            I'm trying to repair my old Acer Nitro 5 (AN517-54-55T5). I've already bought a new laptop, so this is more of a learning project. For the experience, with no high expectations of success.

            Well, my decice specs are the following:

            Model: Acer Nitro 5 AN517-54-55T5
            CPU: Intel Core i5-11400H
            GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650
            Motherboard: GH51G LA-L181P Rev:1c

            The symptom:
            When pressing the power button, the power LED lights up for about 5 seconds and then turns off. Initially, the issue was intermittent: sometimes...
