I have exactly same laptop. Some weeks ago it started cycling between battery and AC while plugged in. It was more on heavy load while charging. Found power connector on the motherboard burnt inside. Soldered power wires straight to motherboard and runs perfect so far. Your videos gave me confidence to attempt something like this. And thank you for the tips about this laptop :)
Dear Sorin im so happy that you catch my comment for cleaning microscope lens, thank you for reading comunity comment and following us :D yes lens look excellent but on some previous videos it was much cleaner i don't know why...but thank you for paying attention on comment have a nice weekend also :D
As topkek posted, I also switched to Stevia more than 5 years ago. It's cheap and sweet like artificial sweeteners but it's not artificial. It's an extract and healthy.
i have been following u 4 the past 2 years great work sir, just step up the game on illustrations sir e.g why a certain chip is found where and its purpose, how certain chips cooperate with power supplies to supply a steady voltage, how power ICs work and extra thank you sir,
Dell (and other laptop manufacturers) ought to listen to repair tech guys. They give you insights into your product's weaknesses and how you should avoid em.
The Inspiron has power and battery problem just as well. I've changed the AC Jack, battery, n charger... I believe it's the motherboard but I don't have tools to test it.
Dell Latitude series are very good laptops. It is mostly the users that destroy their equipment. Here 2 second hands Latitude E5540 with Ubuntu on SSD's , well well, :-D, simply love them.
sir I have a dell precision 3510 but the problem is when is on the battery power it is randomly shut down unexpectedly but when the charger is plug on there is nothing to worry! the battery has just changed a month ago, when I checked in bios is in good health. thanks a lot if you will give me some info about it.
Good job thanks wish I could find somebody to fix my jus not charging but everything else seems to be working just fine keep up the good work Jehovah’s God bless
Well, my lenovo g500 is still looks great and runs perfect after like 8 years or so...and I wouldn't change it for a brand new lenovo laptop...nowadays laptops become so fragile..I saw like hinge problems in first year since purchase...and guess what, the warranty was not accepted for that
@@andrew_koala2974 so if the manufacturer makes the top cover from low quality materials and the screw is ripped off from that plastic just by opening and closing the lid in the first 6 months it's my fault?
My Dell Latitude 3520 it has the same problem, with display it inot turning on. After a few seconds, when the keyboard is light on, led from the power keyboard is turning off. If I try a screen test by pressing the D keyboard, I can run the test. I cleared RTC, but it is still not turning on display.
Damn i have a similar dell. Mine just doesnt always charge like 70 percent of the time or more it doesnt charge. Taken months to get it to like 80 percent without turning it on. Wont turn on without the battery either or maybe it would but it does seem random. New charging port same problem. Any ideas of what i should look at? precision 3520. Charging light blinks in irregular patterns. Seems to be doing 2 long white blinks over and over right now now
i got the same laptop...the problem is when attacth the battery and charger laptop cannot turn on at all, power supply sometimes showing short...when i take the battery off, and using direct charger laptop can on normally....also can on normally with battery only (without charger)
Hi I need your help urgently! I have a Dell laptop (inspiron 3585) and I wanted to replace its hdd. I opened it up added the new hdd and nothing happened when I pressed the power button. I plugged my laptop and no battery charging light came. I checked the battery but it was connected to the motherboard. I checked for blown capacitors and nothing I found. I did this upgrade with battery connected to my motherboard. Coluperates I suspect are cmos , hdd and ram
Hello , I have this laptop but the i7 version with dedicated gpu Amd r7 m360 . It was givven to me witout the charger and with fat battery , so I removed it , because it was going to damage the case and the laptop . Mi question is , since I dont have the original charger for this laptop , but Im using a normal original Dell charger (from other laptop) , so can it damage the laptop or the battery (im getting a new battery tomorow)? Im using it like since september . Thanks in advance
After bios update i got this problem as I had imagined, there are no battery problems because today I accidentally discovered that when the PC tells me that the battery is low, I tried to turn the PC back on and despite the battery indicator telling me 0%, it's more than 1 hour that I'm using it. But now in this situation I don't realize when the PC will shut down, because from 1 hour it tells me 0%. It couldn't possibly be a battery problem because it happened overnight. Now, however, I have this problem that the PC shuts down after 20 minutes because it believes the battery is low, when it isn't. What can I do
hi, i have a dell laptop inspiron 5759. the problem i have is that, it stops charging, i have bought 4 different power packs now, they all seemed to charge for a day or 2 but have all spontaneously stopped. what could be causing this?
I have one of these, the charger light works. The power light just turns on for 15 seconds on the laptop and nothing starts. Would this fix that issue?
I have that laptop was cleaning it now it will not power on with battery only ......when I remove battery and use ac it power on. I want to know problem. Probably simple.
Another great video 👍. Im wondering why your power supply is not throwing sparks at 5A with 8V. Mine would weld any component to the board if you put it on a short circuit at 5A. Any ideas? 😄
I think the secret is that he does not start with 5A. Starts low and only goes up if nothing is sparking or burning suggesting higher resistance malfunction with good heatsink
Hello sir please I need your help my acer r14 is not charging and the technicians I have given says they need schematics to enabled them fix the charging circuit please can you help with the best the laptop works if the battery is charged but will not charge even with a charger
Why so many screws inside just to hold the motherboard if the own body chassis can do the job once the laptop is closed??? My Acer Aspire E15 has no screws inside at all, they chassis and the cover do the job, no need for screws, it's easy to work with. Now Acer is better than Dell?? I can't believe it.
I'm afraid the laptops are trying to compete with the price point of Chromebook and tablets. Consumers are only comparing price only, not actual computing power and usage. The same problem occurred when computers were first introduced to the main public. They were being marketed against a common typewriter price-point. People need to be better educated.
IMHO... Dell uses 16V caps on the 19V line.... from my experience correct capacitor would not fit physically... If you try to use correct cap per schematic it is bigger than what was in so I replace with lesser capacitance but 20V or 25V rated cap! Or Dell uses crappy caps!?!?! I had same 5470 Dell bad cap took out an IC and a burned traces under the IC!! goner!
If you follow the logic, the mosfet was removed to confirm the short or not. It was temporary, since was difficult to find a heating element. It that part of the motherboard it's "normal".

How did you soldered power wires staright to your motherboard?
" Who knows where it's going, another dimension i imagine" lol :-D
excellent repair, teacher, thanks for the class, greetings from South America

This is a nice find just het the part out one by one and testing.
thank you Sir it was a nice teaching videos indeed
Try Stevia, it was a life changer for me to help me quit sugar
best to be real and just stop, you are changing one habit for another

thanks for your great video, i have dell latitude E5570
Nice fix! You should buy a thermal camera. It would speed up extremely fault finding.
but we like that sound when Sorin is screaming :X :D
As always great video, removes cap = fixed laptop.
Is that capacitor not needed for proper functioning?
always watching master sorin
This is like some HTC phones which seem so complicated to take apart. I remember the Samsung A10 was like a nightmare to take apart.
Why don't you invest in an infrared camera.? It's gonna save you a lot of time...

I also drink coffee with no sugar, but espresso ,which is stronger and a little more bitter.
Hello Sorin,you cannot enjoy taste of black tea with sugar.Just without that you can feel all different taste of tea.
The master of dodginess. Thank you for sharing the knowledge with us Mr. Sorin. And don't give up so easy on tea with no sugar. Try different tea.
You need a thermal cam Sorin.

Thanks so much
I have to check the video where the laptop goes to fire btw if i am not mistaken i did notice a cut in your hot air gun cable pay attention to it
U did trial & error this time, usually you do pure diagnosis, but this time hahaha.....its good anywhere i love it

tanks sorin
Great fix
It would be much easier if you had a thermal cam
After unplugging the charger from the mains to reset it, plug the barrel back into the shorted laptop to discharge the capacitors in the charger. :D
A Good Morning Fix !
great maestro! 👍
Thanks for sharing
good job mate.
You can try Zaharina insted of sugar. Nu stiu denumirea in engleza.:D
Very helpful video ..... what was the Uf of the capacitor?
insane keep it up
use equal sweetener, ive use it for year and lost a lot of weight. its good with coffee or tea,
Agreed, Atkins diet, equal, and laptop repair leads to weight reduction.
Great Video!!
It's not a tea - it's a dodgy tea =))

Where did the heat go from that shorted cap? U felt nothing? Maybe a negative reality capacitor.
wow remove a cap and its working that's just crazy :)
well, it's common with a shorted laptop, a single tiny caps can cause laptop not turning on / charging
Nice video :)
I have a 5570 that works but takes extra long to start and I can hear a buzzing coming from inside before it starts... A cap ready to blow?
what kind of measuring did you use here? it went a bit quick so I could not follow. thanks again for sharing!

Good day master . Do you have a video.. laptop repair.
5 v present. 3 v present. Power botton 3.3v present. But wont turn on.
I have a Dell Inspiron 3583 not charging and not turning on. How do I fix it?
Hard to see exactly where he is touching with the probes checking voltage.
