yes, just now tryed a bios from vinafix (https://vinafix.com/threads/j110-820-00164-051-00384.20625/)
but same, but i dont know if the bios is good
i have the board only with the dcin connected on the desk, no lio flex

BT_PWRRESET_L 3.3V
PM_PCH_SYS_PWROK 3.41V
PM_PCH_PWROK 3.41
RTC_RESET_L is 3.31V
PPVRTC_G3H is 3.33V
PCH_CLK32K_RTCX1 has a nice 32.7 puls
under infrared...
i disconnected the display and checked pin 26 and 24 on the flex cable
both 5.01V but on scope no communication to see may be because display is not connected
checked now
PPVIN_S0SW_LCDBKLT_R is 12.93V, is ok in my opinion
LCDBKLT_EN_L is as well 12.93V should be zero i think?
ah ok, just read your post 2informaticos
so I checked R8450 and R8451 both 0 Ohm
and R8452 and R8453 both 1.8Ohm
so, if PPVOUT_S0_LCD_BKLT is 0V then 8400 is not switching on or PPVOUT_S0_LCD_BKLT is short to GND
in diode mode PPVOUT_S0_LCD_BKLT to GND is .804
F8400 is ok
maybe LCDBKLT_EN_L is not working, how it is switching from U8400 SD-Pin? should be Low if turned on isnt it?
