Came in with a significant coffee spill around U6990.
Gave it an ultrasonic clean as it was still sticky.
R6920 and R6905 were burnt out. Replaced them, got green light but n fan spin. A few minutes later R6920 burnt out. Replaced it again and looked around for a short on the G3H lines but couldn't find anything.
Now I get no green light but R6920 and R6905 measure correct. But the voltage on R6905 is somewhere around 0.7v and always moving. Diode mode on R6905 is about 0.130.
ppbus_g3h = 8.20 - 8.50.
pp3v42_g3h = 2.66 - moving
Edit: Any idea why the battery interface was designed the way it was for this model? Seems overly complicated for almost zero benefit.
