Re: Toshiba Satellite - Locks up when plugged in

My friend have Satellite L200 that cannot boot. No post. Battery already depleted. When I plug in the power, the charging led and wireless led will automatically light up. When I pressed power button/switch, it charging led,wireless led,power led and hdd led will light up for 4-6 sec then after that only the charging led and wireless led remain light on. I already changed the NEC/TOKIN OE128. What could be the problems? I'm thinking there is shorting else where but I don't know how to look/find for it. Any help gentleman??

@lhock98... yeah, how nice if my battery still fully charge so I can try update the BIOS.
Thanks for the info mate.

@ablacon64... What is that? Sorry I'm not a qualified electronic technician. Just love to repair my stuff for satisfaction.

Re: Toshiba Satellite - Locks up when plugged in



YEP. Thanks anyway. Power supply checked and seems ok. Nah, maybe the mobo just dead....

Re: Toshiba Satellite - Locks up when plugged in

@ablacon64, thanks for replying.

I have this Satellite L200 (my friends lappy) with no power at all. Checked power adapter, the voltage is 19V.
Checked power jack and connector to the mobo, all ok. No sign of burnt component on the board.

Anyone know anything about this problem on L200? Is it the NEC/Tokin caps fault?

I already disassembled the lappy 100%... any help guys? TIA .

@ablacon64... WOW,your board looks clean and like professional finish! From where you salvage those caps?I really need that caps to recap my customer's satellite L300.
Thanks for your post/photo.
