    Re: Asus ROG N501JW - dead

    Yes. The schematic i have is hard to follow for this model laptop. What is creating that +5VA0? The 19v is supposed to split off and create the 5v rail but what is causing the fault in the circuit? I have 19v from start to where tge 5v should be created at the circled area in picture.

      Re: Asus ROG N501JW - dead

      Hi guys, i have two boards n501jw identical, both have it8585vg chip dead. After replacing, i get white light on power led and red light on keyboard but that's it. It stays black, and turn immediately on after powering off.

      I have nice and healthy 5 and 3.3, aslo ~1.4v on RAM, but nothing on cpu and gpu coils and only about 2v on battery output. Also no charging light even after connecting the batt.

      Any ideas? Dead bios?

        Finding a dead short component
        by Beton
        Hi guys!
        I searched for the term "dead short" in the forum but no specific thread came up however if I'm just blind and couldn't see the thread talking about this please forward me to that direction.
        So my problem is I don't know how to find the source of a dead shorted voltage rail. Dead short = ~0 ohm resistance.
        I have two VGAs (HD 4850 and HD 4870), both dead shorted to ground on the memory rail. I have the boardview file for the 4870 and the memory rail consists around ~7892346 capacitors...
        I have a bench PSU and if I try to inject voltage the voltage...

        Gigabyte GTX1080 - identifying a dead short on vmem
        by Prott
        Hey!
        I have a problem with Gigabyte Aorus 1080. The card seems fine (expected resistance on vcore, pex, 5v, 1.8v, 12v and reset) except for a dead short on vmem (FBVDD). It's interesting failure mode, cause usually (in my experience) when memory fails it still retains a few ohms - this one is literally a dead short.

        I removed the inductors and tried inject voltage (0.8 V at 6 A) which only seemed to warm up the cables to the card while the card itself didn't show any hotspots.

        Is there any way to narrow down the search for a short? I would prefer not to remove...

        Extreme High Current & Low Voltage Short Killer ??
        by DynaxSC
        Hi Folks

        I'm looking for a extreme high current short killer solution for a reasonable cost.

        I have an LGA1700 motherboard (ASUS PRIME Z790-P WiFi) where I exchanged the LGA socket already 3 times, and every time after the socket exchange I get a short of power supply lines VCORE (V variable) and VCCIN_AUX (1.8V).
        After taking off the socket, the shorts dissappear again.
        The soldermask on the socket is already partially demaged from the heat, so I have reconstructed the soldermask by manually painting the missing soldermask parts with a very small top of a...

        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?

        ASUS gaming laptop GL704GV GPU DEAD SHORT
        by Mabot17
        Hello i need help to fix this laptop,at least a discrete to UMA conversion if it's possible.
        i took a photo of what i found,NVIDIA gpu side is 100% shorted as i desoldered power line coils and mosfet side is ok.
        Even without coils laptop still not power on.Main power rails,bios,1v,3,3v and 5v are present...
