    Quoting Jack O'Neill from the famous SG1:
    "Well, this was an intergalatic waste of time..."

    Yes, upper buffer is bad.

    You need to replace the IC on it (about $5 each) or the entire board (pricey & hard to get.)

    You also need to replace the 88N30W FET on the upper most heatsink of the Y-main, closest to buffers.

    Tieny's thread is a good place to look as he had the same issue.

            PS5 digital / No Power / No Beep / Good power supply
            by MisterAIL
            Hi everyone,

            Brought a non functionnal PS5. Apparently only a bad PSU...
            No beep, nothing.

            After some tests i found this :
            - PSU is fine (12 volts stable)
            - 12 volts line is shorted
            - DA9065 was fried, F7003 also => Replaced both of them, short is gone on 12 volts line, no dead short anywhere else.
            - By the way, nothing change. No signal, no power, no beep.

            Mesuring all rails with my workbench psu (12 volts input)
            - 0.00 amp drawing
            - 12 volts, 5 volts, 2 volts, 1,15 volts are presents (suppose new DA9065 do is...

            Vizio M65Q7-H1 Red Vertical Strips fixed by tape blocking LC1 signal to half of the panel
            by howardc64
            Failure Symptom



            No picture, just red vertical stripes. Google search shows quite common problem for these recent Vizio M series although red vertical stripe pattern may differ. Some call it "Netflix" boot screen haha.

            Where is the short?

            Panel has 4x buffer boards. Quickly found the 1/4 panel buffer board with the problem by selectively disconnecting buffer board flex cables.



            Having recently fixed another Vizio with similar symptoms that was a shorted ESD diode array ( link ) Probed the ESD diode array but...

            Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?
            by Tynan Dill
            I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

            Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

            I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

            The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

            With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

            Assuming...

            Dead Dell Latitude 5420 not receiving 20 volts from USB-C charger
            by BTubbs200
            Hello,

            Dell Latitude 5420 P137G
            Board: LA-K491P REV A01

            I have received this laptop which was described as "does not power on or accept charge." Battery shows no sign of charging when charger is plugged in, nor does the board show any signs of life when battery is unplugged and charger is plugged in. No light from the LED at all or any other indications of activity.

            Board seems to have no shorts, all power rails are fine and show high resistance.

            When charger is plugged in, voltage is present in 3.3V rail but absent in others....

            Vizio SmartCast TV software bug that looks like hardware
            by howardc64
            Bug looks like hardware so thought I posted it here. Exact same behavior on 2 different model 4K Vizio TVs running their SmartCast smarttv software. After launching youtube app, press vizio button on remote to return to the smarttv menu, once in awhile, a column of bad pixels will show for few seconds on the left hand side.



            It seems the vizio software is reinitializing hardware when returning to the smarttv menu. In general, SmartCast software isn't very good. Also will randomly (relatively infrequent) get no network connection when on wifi and require reboot....
