Good evening. I'm mozambican from Nampula province. I wish to congratulate you from your patiente in teaching me and other more. Since I knew you from UA-cam I just said: god bless this man and forever. Remember that you have a great student beside.
You are the best teacher in the world!!! Thank you very much!!! thanks to you I was able to fix a board that was shorted due to having dropped liquid in it.
Your videos are the best i ever saw and i'll watch all of them.ician, i fix things every days and you are the best i ever saw. You help me so much. Big thank you. So learning and interesting. It's always a pleasure to learn from you.
I have two laptops that need a eternal fan to cool. but the short on memory, I experienced today. An ACER Aspire tower, There was a module vibrating. It was not snapped in so I engaged the spring clip and started beeping I change the card out and that was it. Thank you for the "professional E-School"... RJ
As usual...2nd comment by me....I am really very very much impressed by your way of working and finding faults. No doubt you are expert among all of us.
this is the best gut i have found to teach mr what i need to know BUT i need it to de more on what i type like ihave new motherboaed for my hp pavilion 17-g113bx power lites on but all of usuden pc won,t power up why?????
Sir you are great!You are the electronics genious.Hoping for the videos tricky cases like this.Your explanation is logical.You are the great teacher too.Thank you so much.
That double mosfet that you replaced was a different as I recall and it still worked - I thought it had to be same exact letter/# combination - learned something new there
Nice video. By the way, the new dual mosfet position can be easily found by the white spot next to the pin on the mb and the hole in the corner of the mosfet. You don`t have to check continuity on the mosfet pins.
Again a nice video. Very nice to see how u debug a fault. ur oscilloscope is a good one u purchased.. wants to see u work on that also show different usage techniques.
Kudos to you sir, so amazing. I have an issue with my client's hp 15ac007nia charging but not powering, when power switch is pressed, the power LED comes up and off in 2sec, is there any assistance I can get from you please sir?
Just got the same with Intel N2840 without a fan (as it is a small underpowered procesor) but as soon as it gets into Windows it will shut down completely. Sometimes keyboard is not working and blinking caps lock. Tried updating BIOS and replacing RAM and CMOS but seems to be the power supply of the processor or the CPU itself. How to diagnose that since it starts up normally! Thank you Mr Sorin for your videos!
Can somebody explain to me how these MOSFET power supply work exactly? What does the coil/inductor do? Does the driver to PWM to regulate the output voltage of the MOSFET? Why we need a second MOSFET? I tried to find out myself but all examples I could are much more complex.
Last night I had a Lenovo B50-70. It powered up and shut down for few seconds. Thanks for your diagnostic method I can check the key things! The 19V power rail was ok. On the memory power supply I measured 1,38V. After a few power up the memory got warm. The sticker on the memory module is burned a bit. I replaced the memory module to an other one and the laptop works fine. Weird Can the memory module go to short?
love these videos still hoping to find problem in a ibm board that i have laying arroun but that seems to be also hard... light works, but when pressing the button the laptop do nothing and power light goes off... so must be a 3v problem? but i found no weird things in that path.
I dont have a power supply so i took a toshiba charger 19V-4.74A and connected the + and - to digital multimeter wires. This way i can see when the voltage drops. Am i right? Can i use this as a power supply? And your videos are very good. I am learning a lot. Thanks!
For me it will be very interesting to tell as about your first days of work. How was with the first repairs and stuff. So on some of the next videos you can add a little story. :) Great video, as usual. Regards Yanko
Good Video. so if current sense loop tells the power control chip there is too much current it would cut the 1.5v reference voltage to the gate. and then retry. the 3 volts comes from the cap and the coil being charged and cut. similar to a voltage doubler circuit. even with the short the power control chip avoids damaging other components.
everything its cuted down already there by the second mosfet based on the current sensor which is next to the second mosfet. 1.5v power rail is joined/shorted with 19v power rail. We have 3v on the memory because i limited the current from my lab power supply
To see what part is getting hot an easy way may be to use an infrared camera. There are some on ebay that you can easily add to your cell phone and they are not that expensive. Great videos thanks
waow i really like this video well done sir, please i have issue with my Dell Inspiron 15 (3000 series) not turn on and not charging pls help but one of the mosfet is very hot on the motherboard thanks
it is fun and im so impressed in watching every video you have master :D i gain some knowledge thank you for your videos im newbie in laptop repairing.. hoping someday i can be good as you sir..🕵😉 keep it up💗👍👍👍
Thanks sir yr videos are very important to me. I have that very kind of mother but with mine,the short is wt the capacitors close to the processor, Pls help me out on what to do.
Sir I love and learn a lot of things from your video but I have a little to add to where u had difficulties in determining the type of mosfet. You can easily type the marking code on the Internet and know its value and functions and while replacing, you can do the same thing for the outstanding one you have @ your disposal to be on a safer side.
I think I started watching your videos on November 2020 and now i already fixed 5 laptops, i also encountered dual Mosfet of HP laptop unfortunately i don't have that dual Mosfet. I almost do the modified but I'm a bit scared as of now and the laptop is expensive i don't want to make mistakes and damage more components. By the way on hp laptop the dual Mosfet dead is the 3.3v
Sir thank you for making a good video like this I would like to ask using a power supply you are checking and apply the voltage how this logic isn't applying could you please make a video on how to use that power supply if possible request thank you sorin sir
Sorry to ask a stupid question. On your drawing, the +13V at the top looks like that is what comes from the charger/battery. So where is the output to the rest of the circuitry? Or if the +13A at the top is the output then where is the rail from the charger/battery?
When you forgot the orientation. So did I when i was sitting watching and learning how to troubleshoot. But then I noticed on the motherboard it had a dot to show the orientation of the duel mosfet. Or atleast thats what I think it meant. Some have arrow showing orientation. But I dont know if all boards mark like this. So good Idea to know without counting on a mark.
Recently I changed the motherboard (15CBHPGT) of my old laptop (HP envy 15t Q300) after HP service confirmed the board was damaged. Now after changing the board and connecting only the power cord without the battery, the power LED is turning on but the pressing the power button is not turning it on. No power to fan or HDD. I checked by disconnecting each connection, Ram, HDD, display but nothing solved the issue. I have checked the 19.5V to the board and the 3V to the power button. This is happening with the new mother board. Can you suggest what I can check now.
Master class. After sitting through years of equations and graphs, I still don’t have a clue of how to diagnose a laptop fault. Those teachers needs to be rounded up and locked up.
most people who study electronics dont really know much...its this hands on experience that really pulls it all together..not oscilloscopes and theory. and calculations.(maybe for circuit designer)
I had the same experience. Finished my 4 year degree in EE, but came away with nothing practical... just lots of math and theory, no way to put it into practice! Sure, we built some LED arrays, did some LabView data acquisition projects, and got to play with lego mindstorms robots. Yet, I have no idea how to design a circuit or product from the ground up, much less diagnose or repair anything complicated. The closed-source IP & proprietary nature of these things is causing so many problems. Students come out with a university degree but no hope in paying off student debt unless they get lucky and find a job where senior level designers will act as mentor. Too much barrier to entry, and generational inequality on top of that! Not to mention the whole planned obsolescence & secretive IP model is also creating massive e-waste problems. Let's hope the right to repair movement is successful! Most of the electronics field is still way behind when it comes to Open Source & DIY learning resources.
Can I ask you what is the problem of my lenovo laptop? It has charging light but not turn on, when I put the battery the coil are getting hot and the second mosfet...
well sir i follow ure posts and try to learn in ure posts u fixed a satellite pro well i have a satellite pro i7 laptop before injecting power to the first mosfet it used to pass power but after ijection power somewere near the usb ports i found a power controler i belive getting hot i removed it after that first mosfet doesnt pass 19v but strangly thers a sense resistor getting 19v near it and i dont have 19v on my power supplies how can it be i would be happy if you can assist me in anyway coz i dont want to damage the mobo by the way this laptop came with liquid spill nescafe but still i had flashing power led at first i know im asking for too much but a simple hello will do thanks or a taught
I use FREEZE 75 is a cooling agent for thermal fault location. It instantly cools down the circuitry. Short circuits or interruptions in condensers, resistors, integreted circuits are quickly discovered.
Good evening. I'm mozambican from Nampula province. I wish to congratulate you from your patiente in teaching me and other more. Since I knew you from UA-cam I just said: god bless this man and forever. Remember that you have a great student beside.
Sir. You are The Grate Engineer.
You are the best teacher in the world!!! Thank you very much!!! thanks to you I was able to fix a board that was shorted due to having dropped liquid in it.
Thanks man, I'm a qualified engineer, Motherboard major faults isn't my best skill. You explain procceses bettter than anyone Iv'e been tough by!!
I think that Sorin is one of that rare people who know whats important in life.
Yes ! we are having fun. lol Great video many thanks , enjoy this stuff. Tomorrow I will be 72 and at it for over 60 yrs.
Wow, respect sir!
it's like a quest... from video to video... i find new information with advancing in diagnose problem. Thank you.
Impressive how you can write with both hands
There! The dreaded dual MOSFETs! Badass component. Great trace and fix as always. Kudos.
Salut . Mi se pare impresionant faptul ca poți scrie/desena cu ambele mâini.....👍🏻
Your videos are the best i ever saw and i'll watch all of them.ician, i fix things every days and you are the best i ever saw. You help me so much. Big thank you. So learning and interesting. It's always a pleasure to learn from you.
fun watching you work!
I dont even mind the ads anymore. Support:)
YOUR VIDEOS ARE VERY FINE. YOU HELP ME TOO MUCH
I have two laptops that need a eternal fan to cool. but the short on memory, I experienced today. An ACER Aspire tower, There was a module vibrating. It was not snapped in so I engaged the spring clip and started beeping I change the card out and that was it. Thank you for the "professional E-School"... RJ
pretty amazing repair. Absolutely did not expect the ram to be running with that short !
As usual...2nd comment by me....I am really very very much impressed by your way of working and finding faults. No doubt you are expert among all of us.
Best best best teacher
this is the best gut i have found to teach mr what i need to know BUT i need it to de more on what i type like ihave new motherboaed for my hp pavilion 17-g113bx power lites on but all of usuden pc won,t power up why?????
Unbelievable sir but this is right way repair of laptop motherboard.
my favorite teacher . i am following your lead daily .i love you techniques
Sir you are great!You are the electronics genious.Hoping for the videos tricky cases like this.Your explanation is logical.You are the great teacher too.Thank you so much.
Reviewed this vid today again. Sorin you an expert in the doctorage level. Thanks for your tutoring!
many , many thanks, sir.
Writing with both hands impressive keep up the great tutorials
Very nice. Difficult case but for another time seems easy in your hands
World best number one engineer
From Colombia,...I´m thanksfull,....the videos are excelents to learn Electronic,......GOD BLESS YOU
i love the way you explain, so simple. Thank you.
That double mosfet that you replaced was a different as I recall and it still worked - I thought it had to be same exact letter/# combination - learned something new there
after all it is just a switch ... most of these mosfets are rated at 30v 20a ... and they switch on at around 2 to 3v ..... so should be ok
I can't stop to watch your video even more if it was too long,I think because you really fascinated about what you do!
Masterpiece of thinking and work!
I understand what you say. What a great job. You are a master in electronics, I'm learning so much with you. Thank you
dude i love your work you are my idol especially the laptop motherboards. love from the Philippines!
Nice video. By the way, the new dual mosfet position can be easily found by the white spot next to the pin on the mb and the hole in the corner of the mosfet. You don`t have to check continuity on the mosfet pins.
What an amazing and useful video.Thanks a lot
Great Video Sorin, very informative
amazing work as always, these tips will be useful for any future repair
Again a nice video. Very nice to see how u debug a fault.
ur oscilloscope is a good one u purchased.. wants to see u work on that also show different usage techniques.

Thank you, that was fantastic! Learned a lot.
Thank you for all
You are the best
I'm watching you from Türkiye. I like it. thanks a lot.
Very nice Sorin, good job!!!!
Another good informative video thanks sorin.
Impresive! so fast fixing stuff.
Great Video Sorin
very best..level best. sir you always won my heart. i eager to watch vedios. pls more on laptop mother board diagnosting techniques.pls
Great Video. Thanks you.

Hello. Great video i can't believe the ram can take double power input and still working. Amazing :) you are werry smart and cool man :)
Great video and I really like your logic. Thanks.
very nice. good job
Last night I had a Lenovo B50-70. It powered up and shut down for few seconds.
Thanks for your diagnostic method I can check the key things!
The 19V power rail was ok. On the memory power supply I measured 1,38V.
After a few power up the memory got warm. The sticker on the memory module is burned a bit.
I replaced the memory module to an other one and the laptop works fine. Weird
Can the memory module go to short?
love these videos still hoping to find problem in a ibm board that i have laying arroun but that seems to be also hard... light works, but when pressing the button the laptop do nothing and power light goes off... so must be a 3v problem? but i found no weird things in that path.
Very nice videos. Why you not using termal camera? Cat s60 maybe?? Or this not good?
Very nice and interesting job!!
شكرا لك على مجهوداتك
Hello sir
Thanks for the informative video. You are doing great job. Hats off 🎩
I dont have a power supply so i took a toshiba charger 19V-4.74A and connected the + and - to digital multimeter wires. This way i can see when the voltage drops.
Am i right? Can i use this as a power supply?
And your videos are very good. I am learning a lot. Thanks!

always you are the best , thanks for your explain
Good work you are teacher
Thanks sir yr videos are very important to me.
I have that very kind of mother but with mine,the short is wt the capacitors close to the processor,
Pls help me out on what to do.
from Jakarta, thx master
💯 goood video sorin keep on
Maestro , hagase un video de las que no anduvieron así no nos frustramos de entrada!
Nice work
Sir I love and learn a lot of things from your video but I have a little to add to where u had difficulties in determining the type of mosfet. You can easily type the marking code on the Internet and know its value and functions and while replacing, you can do the same thing for the outstanding one you have @ your disposal to be on a safer side.
easy way: If the drain is connected to plus=is a channel n
is it necessary to match all the parameters of substitute MOSFET with the defective one while replacing ?
I learn new thing, informative video, thanks a lot.
I think I started watching your videos on November 2020 and now i already fixed 5 laptops, i also encountered dual Mosfet of HP laptop unfortunately i don't have that dual Mosfet. I almost do the modified but I'm a bit scared as of now and the laptop is expensive i don't want to make mistakes and damage more components. By the way on hp laptop the dual Mosfet dead is the 3.3v
Good job sir . In indonesia it called "rosok"
Sir thank you for making a good video like this I would like to ask using a power supply you are checking and apply the voltage how this logic isn't applying could you please make a video on how to use that power supply if possible request thank you sorin sir
nice video sorin , what power supply are u using please thank you in advance
Nice job! Couldn't you make one bridge? for the one that was in short circuit? just saying?
thank you so much , i like your videos
Who else is watching this in 2023?
Sorry to ask a stupid question. On your drawing, the +13V at the top looks like that is what comes from the charger/battery. So where is the output to the rest of the circuitry? Or if the +13A at the top is the output then where is the rail from the charger/battery?
Great detective work you did there!
When you forgot the orientation. So did I when i was sitting watching and learning how to troubleshoot.

You can also turn a can of compressed air upside down and spray that way..
but.... the fun...
LOL XD
What is petrol that you use?? Here in Brasil we use isopropanol alcohol.
He's using Zippo petrol
Keep it up sir
What software do you use to record multiple cameras at the same time?
obs
thank you sir
Hi, so why my all dell power supp;ies have on midle pin voltage 0.125v - 0,050v its that correct?
38:45 Where's the cleaning up before replacing the new component? Nice video, anyway.
