    Dell 3007wfp - no power led - does not turn on

    Bought a working Dell 3007 at auction, which was listed as not powering up.

    However, it didn't work for long, and it died while I was trying to load the drivers.

    No screen, no LED, no life, no nothing.

    I read the 3008 thread with interest and so thought I'd try to replace Scottky D221 but
    I blew the house earth leakage detector as soon as I plugged it back in.

    Struggling, and would appreciate some advice.

    Hoping.

    Bad secondary caps, or the small "startup" cap on the primary kicked the bucket.

      Many thanks for the suggestion. All the caps look OK. Will check it out though.

      Cheers

        Dell latitude e7470 not turn on .power buton on off and Run Power problem
        by masoksian
        Hi everyone,

        I am dealing with the problem of turning on and off my Dell e7470 notebook.

        The battery charge light is solid white, I press the button, the power indicator and the light on the button are solid for 1-2 seconds and immediately turn off.

        The system does not turn on, there is no post.

        I removed the RAMs and changed them, changed the battery, RTC battery, AC adapter, removed them and waited, tried again, it does not turn on.
        The problem continues in the same way.
        I tried to turn on the Fn key, nothing came to the screen....

        Dell E6400 PT434 type Battery Charging Stuck at 1%. Battery Pinouts?
        by Bowline
        My question pertains to understanding the control circuity inside a Dell PT434 type battery used in Dell E6400, E6410 and other Dell notebooks?

        Does anyone have a circuit diagram for the inside of a Dell PT434 battery and/or a description of how the control lines work to control this battery?

        My reason for asking is I have a battery which I cannot get to charge beyond 1% in a Dell E6410 or E6400.
        The LED bar graph charge indicator on the battery shows one LED lighted when the info button is pressed.
        I have tried multiple different Dell power adapters. My Dell...

        Dell inspiron 13 5000 - Doesn't turn on, overheating
        by Nagyesz
        I have a Dell laptop with me, a DELL inspiron 13 5379. It doesn't turn on. After some investigation, I found that the charger is delivering 0-3V instead of 19.5V, and this voltage fluctuates constantly. Additionally, two ICs are overheating. I searched for these ICs, and it seems they are likely related to the issue of not having 19V.
        Should I inject voltage somewhere, or should I replace the ICs right away?

        So, PU4301 is overheating, and the surrounding area is hot, possibly just because of this IC.

        Dell 3421 wont turn on with strange behavior
        by julianmustofa
        Hi all
        I've been working on dell 3421 that won't turn on/charge
        Specs: i3-3217U no discrete gpu

        The behavior is
        -won't charge (charging light up for 3 second and goes away)
        -won't turn on if both battery + power adapter plugged in
        -in other way it can turn on with either power adapter only or battery only

        But sometimes all this issue goes away with no clear reason.
        Does it indicates faulty board chipset?
        Thanks
