[SOLVED]820-00165 Short on PPBUS_G3H

[computercaverva]

When power is injected c7056 gets hot beside the CPU.

Remove C7056 and see if that clears the short, then replace it

There is no C7056 in my 00165 schematic. Just rip it off, it is on PPBUS anyway and not need to replace.

This is what I get for trying to remember component numbers without a schematic in front of me. It was C7376 when I replaced it with another cap the short was gone however it got hot with power running through it. I removed it completely and the computer turns on, is it ok to leave it off for good?

If you replaced it with another cap it quite possibly just was leftover heat from the replacement or it was also damaged.

Like duke said you can leave it off for good. Its not very important as its just one of the 8 big input capacitors.

Awesome! This was the first repair for a new business client I always hate the first impressions being unrepairable! This one is solved. Thanks smiba and [USER][/USER]
