    HP 15-ac105nj have a short on ROM (bin4+8)

    Hello my friends,
    i know that bin 4 on ROM chip is ground
    and bin 8 is for VCC

    i have a short between ground and both of bin 4 and bin 8 on the ROM Chip
    how i can troubleshoot that problem?

    is that a processor fault?

    can i inject bin 8 with 3.3V using the power supply?

    what is your Bord ID don't' inject 3.3V only 1-1.5V you can increasing amps , check the resistance to GND on pin 8 BIOS chip does the MB have 2 Bios chips ?

      first is try to take off the bios chip from the mobo then test the ic pin look for short.. then try to check the board and check it for short, what is the part number of you eeprom ic. get the datasheet then compare the pinouts. try to buy the same eeprom if defective .post here what you discover.

        Pin8 of main bios shorted to gnd indicates a short on PCH-The pch itself may be shorted or some component on 3V rail may pull that rail to ground. Remove the bios chip from mb and check pin8 resistance again. Your 3v coil is very likely shorted-so remove 3v coil and check which side is shorted. Inject 1V on that rail and gradually increse amps to see if there is any warm component. Good luck.

          Guide to transplant MEC1503 EC chip and EEPROM reprogamming for T14s gen 2 and X13 gen 2
          by acedogblast
          This is a guide that I am writing for helping others to replace their MEC1503 EC chip if it breaks (or to get around an inconvenient prompt to the BIOS). This forum has been extremely helpful to me so I would like to contribute to help others. I will tell you right now that this task is very difficult to do. You MUST have experience and tools to do precision micro-soldering, BGA reballing, trace repair, and general laptop repair skills.

          There are some specialty tools needed to do this task. The replacement MEC1503 chips can be acquired from Aliexpress. Do not buy the bare chips as...

          ASRock B650M PRO RS - BIOS CHIP 25Q256JW BLOCKED BY STATUS REGISTERS
          by DynaxSC
          Hi

          I have a very strange issue with the BIOS SPI chip of an ASRock B650M PRO RS motherboard.
          The SPI chip is an Winbond 25Q256JWEQ model (1V8).
          The motherbaord doas not POST - it lits only CPU and DRAM EZ Debug Leds, and stays that way forever.
          The Flashback function of the motherbaord is also not working, despite all instructions followed correctly - I'm 100% sure of this.

          I have then desoldered the chip, backupped the contents, and tried to earease the chip in order to program stock image, but the chip is locked by status registers SREG2 (TB) and SREG6...

          Nintendo Switch lite charging chip heats up and does not short circuit
          by fab13
          Hello everyone


          Small technical problem on a Nintendo Switch lite
          Here's what I noticed: the USB port has been damaged internally, with a short circuit on the power supply line to the small fuse.

          After replacing the USB connector, the short circuit went away and I can't see any other short circuit in the whole motherboard.

          When I charge the console, it seems to be charging: I get 15 volts and an amperage of 0.450 A.

          Then, after a while, the amperage increases to 1.1 A and the BQ24193 charging chip starts to heat up, as evidenced...

          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 .

          Common SPI bios chip programming Questions and Answers
          ----------------------------------------------------------

          Q: I have a bios request,i can`t post my backup as i can`t read from the chip.

          A: If you can`t read from it how do you expect to write to it ?.

          Q: Why is my bios chip unreadable ?.

          A: The programmer is faulty or has a worn or broken zif socket.

          The USB cable is frayed,connector pins worn or some other physical damage.

          Not enough amperage or voltage to power the programmer properly.
