Re: Acer Spin 5 - Turns on and off after a few seconds
So just received the replacements. The measurement between the S and D out of circuit is the same. The measurement of the new mosfet is also the same out of circuit, so I am not sure if it has anything to do with the fault :/
I went ahead to measure between the S and D of the other mosfet (PU4301) and it has the same reading. This means, my original reading of PU4301 in one of the earlier posts... was wrong. I replaced PU4401 anyway, and will give it a shot. I've ordered some other components that are in the power/charging circuit, as you suggested, in case we'd find anything odd.
EDIT: So the situation right now is, it powers on, stays on... CPU is hot, fan starts spinning when CPU gets hot. At one point I was feeling around and it turned off (this was around 60 seconds on). Powering on again won't work. Powers on for around 3-5 seconds, and then turns off again. Nothing to do with the CPU temperature as at that time it was cool. Still nothing on display.
