    Acer V5-132P 3D3v_PWR Shorted to ground

    I'm troubleshooting a laptop motherboard Acer V5-139P, 3D3V_PWR is shorted to ground, at first I thought PT4101 or PU4104 is short I remove those two parts but still got 3D3V_PWR shorted to ground, I remove the coil PL4101 to check some shorted pads, but nothing. It seems the short is after PL4101, I check PU4101, 3.3v and 5v are present. It seems a dead end to me I will not jump to a conclusion for a shorted CPU. Any help is very much appreciated. Thank you very much.

      any sign of water damage on any IC?
      If no symptom, while the 3.3v coil is removed, inject voltage at the shorted line to see which IC gets warm. It may be SIO or PCH or a capacitor.

              No water damage, I did not try voltage injection yet. mcplslg123... yes pin 8 of bios is also shorted to ground. I suspect the bios IC and remove it, still shorted. My last effort to do now is doing the voltage injection to see which parts get warm...

                  if 3.3v line for bios is short, you can connect 1v power supply and see which segment is warm .i thinks you have a short smd capacitor

                      Go with the suggestions of @kokono and@caspian. Your 3v line is shorted and it could be anything, shorted cap,pch etc.

                                  Hello:

                                  I have both these laptops that appeared to have the same fault so I thought I would have a go at replacing the PCH as something to learn, they both are using the same PCH.


                                  I started on the ACER:

                                  Up on connecting power no signs of life but current is consumed from the bench power supply and the PCH is hot.
                                  All the caps on the top of the PCH are showing 0 ohms and the 3.3v rail is shorted.

                                  I followed the videos from Sorin, Electronics Repair School on Youtube heating from the bottom to install. I practised on around 10 scrap...

                                  Hi, Would appreciate some help.
                                  I have an Apple Late 2013 15" A1398 MacBook Pro with Logic Board 820-3662.
                                  Get charger light but no fan spin or chime. No liquid damage.
                                  Found PPBUS and VCORE both shorted to ground. Other rails were ok.
                                  Removed VCORE MOSFETS U7310, U7320 and U7330. Found U7330 was in fact shorted.
                                  With the 3 MOSFETS removed, get PPBUS and fan spin. VCORE is still hard shorted to ground (0 ohms).
                                  Attempted voltage insertion on VCORE to locate short using bench supply set at 1.0 VDC and 4.95 Amps (max current for my...
