These have been extremely useful for diagnosing and fixing a DAG77MB18C0 REV C.
The charger input stage seems identical, also uses BQ24728 charger IC.
I didn't find the datasheet, but thanks to the forum I saw BQ24725 was very similar if not identical.
In my case the laptop was totally dead, yet the fix was very easy.
The BQ looked fine, ACIN (19.5V), ACDET (2.7V), ACDRV (25V), REGN (6V) signals were ok.
But the voltage at the gate of PQ1001 was 0.9V...
Found PQ1002 was shorted, and that was it.
The original fet was AON7408,...
