    Re: "easy" PSU repair

    must be this led lid when i have lower output voltage than 12V so it dont need to reduce duty cycle?

    and why is this duty cycle so low that it even not reach 12V output?

    i attach another pictures for u

      If you loose the feedback you want the voltage to go low, If there was a problem with the feedback circuit and the voltage went high, it could reach 20-30 volts which would not be good.

        Re: "easy" PSU repair

        so what can be checked next? as i check optocoupler so there must be something bad elsewhere

          Re: "easy" PSU repair

          This seems to be how the feedback is connected, Are the resistors ok ?
          There is a diode across the output, Is this a zener diode?
          when i measure components on this PSU i see that this two diode was shorted, so i replace it with two normal diodes.
          how can i know the value of that zener diode when i dont have original diode
          This could also be your problem, they are not regular diodes. one is a tvs diode (P6KE200 or similar) That could be killing the primary waveform, You could try replacing the tvs diode with the resistor/capacitor shown in the top224 datasheet temporarily to see if the output comes up to 12 volts.

            Re: "easy" PSU repair

            all resistors chcecked outside of board and is ok

            that P6KE200 diode is a zener diode that i replace earlier for just diode that it meant to be

            That diode on output is 1A shotky barier diode

            across output diode i found broken capacitor. dont have its parameters so i just throw in some capacitor laying around without know its capacity,is it a problem?

              Re: "easy" PSU repair

              This diode is a 1 amp shottky diode? This should be a Zener diode.
              And you replaced the P6KE200 with the proper tvs diode, correct?
              Do you mean that chip cap across the output diode? just remove it for now and see if the voltage comes up.

                Re: "easy" PSU repair

                yes that diode is 1A shotky, looks like it was nor replaced


                that big diode have on it P6KE200A 4702

                removed that capacitor but voltage not rises

                  Re: "easy" PSU repair

                  You can't have a regular diode across the 12 volt output (My picture post#26)

                  I see the diode you replaced in your picture above(post#27) Which diode are you replacing? If you look at the schematic, is it VR1 or D1 ?
                  That diode you are using to replace VR1 is a p6ke200a that should be ok

                    Re: "easy" PSU repair

                    i replaced both diodes VR1 and D1. VR1 is that P6KE200A and D1 i just throw some diode laying around. i check it now and its B360A 3A shotky diode. it's rating is only 60V but it dont blow so it is good :-)

                    when i remove that 1A shotky diode nothing changes

                      Re: "easy" PSU repair

                      What about the diode across the 12 volt output? what is the number on it? I asked about it in post #26 (the one in the yellow box)

                          Have you tried removing it to see if the voltage will come up? It could be breaking down when there is voltage on it.

                            try to remove it but nothing changed

                            if it is connected in blocking way to plus it can stay there

                              before this goes any further,
                              you blew the fuse - did you find what blew it yet?
                              because that's not related to output voltage.

                              do you know the current it's drawing from the mains?

                                it does matter?

                                nothing gets hot so it will be miliamps

                                  It could be that the top224 is damaged, if everything else seems to check ok

                                    transformer with a short in the primary will still work but draw more current (reduced resistance)

                                      it draws less than 0.1 mA. literraly i cannot even measure it because my multimeter dont have that low scale

                                        Using the bridge (-) as ground, what voltage to you measure on the pins of the top244?
                                        You repaired the trace from the control pin to the capacitor, BUT is the trace from the control pin to the optocoupler ok?

                                          I would expect the MOSFET inside the SMPS to be damaged since the snubber diodes shorted out and also blew the fuse. The strange part is that OP is indicating output Voltage on the cold side so something is switching in the HOT side, at this point I would suggest to replace the IC and the OPTO. It is also strange to have BOTH snubber diodes shorted out.

                                            Hello!

                                            Unfortunately my Lenovo L14 Gen 1 (motherboard NM-C741) was involved in a terrible mishap. At first, one of my friends accidentally spilled coffee on it which made some of the ports stop working but the computer worked fine otherwise. After that I stupidly opended it and forgot to disconnect the battery... One thing leads to another and I accidentally short it between two components (unfortunately I do not remember which components). After that I get nothing, no charging indication, no boot indication, no fan spin, nothing.

                                            So I'd love to learn my mistakes and...

                                            Hello everyone!

                                            I hope this is the correct place to post this, if not please let me know and I will post in the appropriate location.

                                            I'm venturing into the intricate world of board repair within electronics, and I'm reaching out to this community for some guidance and shared wisdom.

                                            Hello. Just want to share my experience of easy DMI Data transfer on HP Laptop with corrupted BIOS.

                                            Open the backup image with UEFIToolWithReplace, go to Intel image / BIOS Region, extract first Padding area, replace it in a new clean factory BIOS using the same UEFIToolWithReplace. That's all ...
