    Use flux and hot air to confirm there are no soldering issues with the replaced charger IC. Especially pins 18 and 19 on this device. Power down, remove battery, meter in resistance mode and check for shorts between 18 & 19.

      Resoldered charger IC, when powered down between pins 18 and 19 have resistance 26kOhm and 100kOhm then meter probes switched. I have the same voltage on both pins then connected to PSU or Battery. Without High side mosfet the same.

        Update
        Fixed laptop. Tested with wrong batteries. Original battery was AC14B18J 11.31V. Tested with AC14B8K 15.2V. Got another battery - charging correctly now.

            ASUS X54H laptop thinks it's always charging even with charger unplugged
            by flat-earther
            The charging indicator light on my ASUS X54H laptop is always on even when the charger is disconnected.

            Windows also shows ''Plugged in'' when charger is not connected.

            This problem started year ago gradually, when unplugging the charger the charging light took several seconds to disappear, then minutes, and now almost always on even when unplugged for an entire day.
            Strangely, before sometimes immediately when plugging in the charger the charging light went away, and later came back with it connected.
            If I let battery run out and say it has 3% Windows will...

            Lenovo T460 Only Charges on One Charger
            by motormayhem
            Laptop Question
            Hello,
            I'm working on a Lenovo T460 that has been having trouble charging as of late. Its worked well since I've owned it for a few years. When I went to use it the other day it was dead and wouldn't turn on (was sitting on an Anker 65W GaN charger). After some fiddling with the charger I got it to turn on and start charging, but seemed like the charger was not working as it should (took a few plug and unplug cycles to get it to start charging).

            A day later it was dead again and wouldn't boot/charge no matter what I did. No lights or anything when...

            HP 650 G1 - works only with battery+charger but not detecting battery
            by ktmmotocross
            Hello.
            Have this HP 650 G1 that works ONLY when battery first and then attach charger. otherwise it not work with charger or battery only.

            i cannot fing what is wrong with it. ACDET - ok, ADP_A_ID - 3.3V ACPRESS, Mosfets looks ok. even when working board dont see battery . data link on battery is ok 3.3V

            this charging circuit is hard. anybody knows what to measure?

            A1706 820-00239 - Works, but sometimes shuts off when the charger is disconnected
            by baglaivlad
            Hello everybody!

            Have in work A1706 820-00239 model. Originally no power, shorted PPBUS_G3H because of corroded C6403, C6404. Some water damage around this components, but nothing major.

            After replacing this capacitors the laptop came back to work, I reinstalled MacOS and had no issues until I started to test Type-C ports. Sometimes the laptop shuts off immediately when some action with Type-C ports performed (charger disconnected or USB device inserted/disconnected). I checked Type-C port flexes, they are okay, but I cleaned them anyway. I can't see any signs of liquid...

            Y580 works on battery, but not with charger
            by pingaroon
            Hi all,

            I have a Lenovo Y580 board which works fine on battery power, and the battery charges normally with a charger. The issue is when the input is from the charging port. The charger used is perfect and is in use in another Y580 laptop

            the 19v comes into the + of the charging port and enters the first mosfet PQ301. Voltage on the other side drops slightly (by .5v), and enters the 2nd mosfet PQ302. The voltage on the other side, and thus at the main power rail current resistor at PR301, is 0.9V. However, the main power rail is NOT short at this point (as also evidenced...
