I had a ceramic cap failure in an ASUS G731 across the main system rail, and after replacing the cap, laptop works good. The only thing which is not OK, is there are no voltage on the battery-line.
So my question is: Can a direct short across the main system rail kill the battery?
Can I try to charge the battery with a current limited lab supply to diagnose the battery?
See the attached picture. The obvious black and red wires, but there are one white and one yellow aswell. Do I have to "enable" the battery terminals in any way through shorting any to minus or...
