  • No lights, no fan spin: blown input fuse, shorted MOSFET, dead DC jack, failed EC. Fix: replace fuse/MOSFET/DC jack or reprogram/replace EC.
  • Powers on then off (overcurrent): shorted rail or failing capacitor — isolate with current-limited PSU, find shorted component.
  • Battery won’t charge: broken charging IC or battery pack sensing line — check charger input, charging IC caps, and MOSFETs.
  • POST with beeps/LED blink codes: consult boardview for EC-led mapping; often BIOS corruption or RAM/socket failure.
  • Intermittent boot or overheating GPU: BGA solder joint cracks — reflow or reball GPU/CPU.
  • Left Click: Select a component.
  • Right Click + Drag: Move the board.
