I removed U20 and the short is gone. Problem is I don't know how to program IT8587. Is it a matter of having a donor chip or is it there a special software tool to program it?
Anyway I think I'm going to buy another motherboard.
Hi there,
I have this laptop which is not powering on/charging with the AC adapter plugged in.
At some point, battery ran out and the laptop did not charge anymore and did not turn on either.
First things checked in the MB:
- Visual inspection. All clean.
- 19V on AC adapter -> OK.
- PD11, PF2, PQ20, PQ21 -> OK (fuse, diode, mosfets)
- C211 shows a short between GND and MX7 line to U20 (don’t know IT8587 internals, may be it is normal).
- PC65 shows a short between GND and 3.3V_ALW2
- Consumption 100mA @ 19V ...
