      I put the original resistance back on, I continue to have a maximum of two volts on the 12v which then goes away and I again have the short on the 5v and no sign of voltage, we are ready to go

        so basically you are back to square one? It starts up, then it shuts down?

          take that brown goo off (between that green and yellow cables) that brown goo can get conductive over time and messes things up. So anywhere you see this brown stuff, remove it.

            yes, but the voltage coming out from 12 volts is initially lower than before

              ok, anyway it is a kind of glue that they put initially, a bit I took it off, but do you think the problem is on the primary or secondary?

                Re: Itek Atx 500W does not turn on

                I found a power supply to buy the same for 10 euros, if I can't solve it I can do some tests with the working one, meanwhile in the afternoon I try to understand where this short comes from

                  Re: Itek Atx 500W does not turn on

                  I can't see much of a problem on the output side, bedsides the -5V and -12V having two extra (smaller) diodes per rail and that is about it.
                  So I guess the feedback circuit next.

                  What short are you talking about now?

                    Re: Itek Atx 500W does not turn on

                    I always have the short on the 5v that does not go away, I removed the heatsink with the schottky diodes I removed the inductance, and the short remains, I have to see what else to remove to understand where the short is on the 5 volts, in the previous message I wanted to tell you that I bought a second hand equal power supply to help me solve

                      I thought that was due to a low ohm resistor? Your post #28.

                        no, the resistance was good at the end, unfortunately I got distracted and I thought it wasn't good, instead I measured the same one in a working atx and it's good

                          how do you power up the PSU? Mounted in a computer or outside manually forcing it to turn on?

                            I'm trying it on the outside, by bridging the green wire with gnd, I've tried to disconnect all the resistende, capacitors and zener diodes that are on the way of the red wire but the short does not go away

                                    the black is gnd. Did you change those 2 small capacitors in between the 2 heat sinks?

So i thought maybe lcd stripe is faulty, i removed the bottom cover, disconnected main battery, reset the cmos by disconnecting battery for 1 min, then slighty move the lcd stripe. Conncted power supply and tuned on my laptop, the lcd turn on, it started to load os, then it turn off, after a second it turn on, then after like 3 seconds turn off again, and so on. Removed power supply, waited...

                                            Laptop is HP Envy x360 13-bf0013dx, hp website link, it's an i7-1250U with 8 gig onboard ram.
                                            Platform: ipa32 la-m024p rev 1b



                                            Originally you'd plug power supply into it and it would take up to 1.2 amps and then drop to 200 milliamps and then go back up again to 1.2, staying all the while at 5 volts. Pressing power button would results in power LED blinking amber 3 times. 3.3 volt rail, 5.1 volt rail present, main power rail 8.8 volts. Power button test pads near EC chip 2.7 volts.

                                            I found a short on the other side:

                                            To all the members here...

                                            Let me tell you a little bit about what happened to my laptop (MSI GF63 THIN 11UCX model: MS-16R6) that “maybe” you know how to solve this problem.

                                            So before this problem happened, my laptop was running smoothly. When I wanted to restart my laptop, it looked fine at first. But after I waited for this restart process to take a long time, until finally I panicked (because the restart process did not finish plus the laptop screen only showed a black screen), I immediately pressed and held the power button to force the laptop to turn off. But...

                                            Hello, I have an Acer Aspire 4520 from a couple of decades ago and I want to repair it solely for nostalgia.

                                            It happens that when I turn it on after having been disconnected for a long time, it turns on without problems, it tells me that the BIOS has been reset and that it will load the factory settings, if I tell it to continue, the computer turns on and everything works fine.

                                            The moment I turn it off and want to turn it back on a second time, or restart it and try to start it again, it no longer gives an image, and it no longer responds.

                                            If I remove the...

                                            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....
