HI Brains Trust
I am trying to fix my second power book 180, but this time it is not as simple as diode. This time I get 7.7v on the first power inductor ( red and black ). Power does not flow further, Second power inductor seems to be shorted to ground , black probe on the ground, red on either end, meter in continuity mode, and I get beep on both ends. I am correct here in saying that power inductor is gone? or there is something else
One more interesting thing is that U3 chip is getting hot, over 30 deg, other remain cold.
