Please mark post as resolved. Replaced U5523 and the issue was resolved. I looked at it under high magnification and the top looked a little funny.. almost like a chip was taken out of the top of it.
Pain in the neck to replace that particular component surrounded by the fan, IO board, and wifi connectors.
