    12V rail is not on ?

    Guys,

    Does anyone know why my 12V rail is not on ?
    5V standby is on....

    The power supply is LC 300ATX, does anyone have the schematic ?
    I suspect my 12V rail is short, because of short on my capacitor on motherboard..

    it's using to diodes soldered together into heatsink...is it FR302 ?

    I saw :

    5VSB is always on. I am guessing that is the only thing that is powered up. No -12V, no +12V, no -5V,no +5V neither the +3.3V. To turn the rest of the PSU on, take a 1k resistor and jump 5VSB to PSon.
    Other than that, check that D8 isn't shorted, T4 has continuity between pin 5 and 6, L6 isn't open, and that C26 isn't shorted to GND.

          Can t find C26? Is the schematic the same between 250w n 300w

            Got it..small 22nF near the chip..is that Pwm switching chip?

                If there is a short between 12V and Ground, then isolate the relevant components on the secondary side until the short goes away.

                    CapLeaker has already identified the components that are likely culprits.

                    In any case you appear to have already found the problem -- shorted D8. After removing D8, test for shorts across the 12V output again. Also confirm that D8 tests shorted out-of-circuit. There should be an electrolytic capacitor filtering the 12V output. Test it also.

                    Edit:

                    Here is the circuit diagram for an LC-B250ATX.

                    Some time ago I had a fake 400W PSU which was actually a 200W version of the above circuit:

                        Don't switch the PSU on after removing components. Just test them for shorts without powering on.

                                    Umm... that link isn't showing.

                                    With your DMM set to diode mode, probe the left and right pins of the diode to the middle pin. If there is a short, the diode is bad. easy.

                                    The SBL1040 is a 40V, 10A Schottky rectifier that has a voltage drop of 0.6V. Problem is that it is only a diode with 2 legs, it should be one with 3 legs.

                                    Maybe you can upload nice straight shot, high resolution pictures here to badcaps, using the attachment feature.

                                          Hi all.
                                          This notebook was showing no signs of life.

                                          I removed the FH52M LA-J891P mainboard and found that there was 19V at the DC jack.
                                          However there was zero volts on the two PRB2 and PRB46 resistors immediately after the two polarity protection MOSFETs (PQB11 & PQB12).

                                          If I remove the PQW1 MOSFET, the 19V rail starts working, and I can turn on the unit - at least I get the fans, and the power light comes on, when I simulate the power button being pressed. No display.

                                          I tried replacing the MOSFET with a new one, but again no voltage on the...

                                          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?

                                          Macbook Pro (820-2773) 20 ohm partial short on the pp3v8 power rail after water damage
                                          by TheNuclearOption
                                          water damage to the left speaker channel circuit caused an internal board short that has been carved out and damage to various capacitors. I removed both chips ur630 and ur600 both were burnt. Im not sure how to track down this partial short. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

                                          The fuse is blown on ppbus and im getting 12.24v to the ppvbatt side of the fuse

                                          i HAVE AN HP MOBO WHICH HAS SHORT +VIN.
                                          THE SHORT APPEARS AFTER THER CURRENT SENSE RESISTOR.(REMOVED AND TESTED).

                                          I AM GETTING RESISTANCE TO GROUND 14 OHMS.

                                          I PLACED A JUMPER CABLE ON CURRENT SENSE RESISTOR AND I APPLIED 2V
                                          AND I INCREASE AMPS UPTO 0.86 SHOWNING CC ON PS FOR SHORT.
                                          I NOTICE PCH AEAR IS GETTING A LITTLE BIT WARM.
                                          I INCREASE AMPS TO 0.9 AND CC LIGHT ON PS WHEN OFF.

                                          ACCORDING TO PS SHORT CC LIGHT IS ON BETWEEN 0.27-0.86A

                                          WHY IS THIS!
                                          CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN

                                          THANKS
