Re: Boardview Dell Inspiron 15r-5521

I was also thinking something else caused it. I will be working on the other diagnostic steps, hopefully I can make progress.

Thanks all for your replies and assistance !

Re: Boardview Dell Inspiron 15r-5521

I am not convinced the PL601 is the correct label, even though that is right beside the damage. I saw a picture of a board for sell and the component looked more round than this part.

I am including the best pic I could get, but does anyone have a visual pic of a board showing the missing component?


Thanks....

Hey, new to this forum and totally no skills, so this is a learning experience for me.
I have this laptop, disassembled due to no power whatsoever, pulled motherboard and found a chip burned off the board. I have found schematics that point to the item but would like a visual of the board and cannot find one.

The board is LA-9104P, what part is not covered up by a sticker. The missing component appears to be labeled PL601 and the burn is pretty severe, maybe the board is too damaged. Cannot get a good pic to post.

The part is TAI-TECH HCB1608KF-121T30 ...

Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

Wow I am really lost here, my first attempt to repair a board so bear with me. I found this site while in search of a boardview to identify a part on a laptop board.
I am about as much a newbie as could ever be so here goes.
Thanks for any help in the future !
