Eternal power supply stopped charging battery. Laptop continued to work till battery drained. External power supply is fine 19 volt. Removed Mother Board and found that the +19 volt travels from the input jack immediately to a printed circuit board device marked EC-51 but the power stops there. My question is what is this device. Is it a fuse, diode, or other electronic device and can I replace it or jump it out? If I connect the battery to the Mother Board it powers up fine.

Computer stopped charging battery. Computer continued to work untill battery discharged.Power into unit is fine (19 Volt) POSITIVE SIDE only travels to item marked EC-51 first electronic chip on Mother Board and stops traveling at that point. Negative side travels to on/off switch and is complete. My question is what is that item (EC-51) a fuse or a diode or neither? What can I replace it with? Can I jump it out? If I connect Battery to Mother Board which is on workbench it powers up fine but won't power up on power supply. Power Supply is good.
